Recipes for far too many eggs

[Racingsnake]

New chickens laying laying like mad.

Have been eating egg sandwiches, spanish omlette, egg cury - anyone got any other ideas?

Egg custard Tart

Souffle
Pancakes
Quiche
Egg fried rice
Scrambled egg
French toast

lots of fairy cakes
Yorkshire puddings/toad in the hole.

Thats what I seem to make anyway. Plus lots of boiled egg and soldiers for brekkie/lunch.

Fish Pie
Kedgeree (sp)
Meringue (egg whites)
Choc mousse (egg yolks)
Choc Brownies (my recipe uses 4 eggs)

sell/give some to friends/neighbours?

baked eggs
eggs benedict
boiled egg and soldiers
quiche
cakes
omlettes

lemon meringue pie (yolks in bottom part, whites on top.

Sell them, or give them to grateful friends. Supermarket eggs (non-battery, of course!) are horrendously expensive and I would be thrilled to bits to be given some, or for the chance to buy some fresh ones at, say, £1 for 6.

salad nicoise
cauliflower cheese (my mam liked to include eggs)

Wow! I don't know if I'll have any left to sell at this rate! Tearinghair - if you are in North Dorset you'd be very welcome to half a dozen fresh eggs any time!

Mix them up with grated cheese and put on toast under the grill. Yummy.

Eggy bread with ketchup for breakie.

If you break them into tubs and mix them round a bit, you can freeze them and then use them later for baking with.

I thought they didn't lay much in the winter. Is that not right?

There's a specific Egg Recipe Book available which I keep meaning to look up on Amazon, RS.

Friends, family and neighbours take our spare eggs but do they ever return the egg boxes? [grrr]

Just don't feed them to boys!!

Mawbroon - I was told they ease up on egg production in the winter too. My three hens, however, have upped egg production. I think they only do it so they can spend some time in the warm nest box - dozy buggers!

egg recipe books

I make a delicious chocolate swiss roll sponge which requires six egg yolks and sugar, beaten. Then you stir in melted chocolate. Then you add the six beaten and stioff egg whites. It is delicious.

You can then fill with cream and rasps or buttercream or whatever you want.

Mawbroon - hens can lay all winter if they come into lay in the autumn, but only in their first year (which is why commercially they are only kept for one year). I am so pleased with their success this year I intend to add one pullet each autumn.

Egg recipe book look great, Doodle2U (great name). Will try Abe Books.

Bit worried that my family is going to roll into spring after eating all these delicious recipes!

a daffodil cake takes 6 eggs (have a google), ditto Nigella's almond cake

I love the sound of that cake and I also have an everything-intolerant friend. Two birds (chickens?) with one stone, so to speak.
