Quail eggs (dozen)
$5.00
Quail eggs look cool and are delicious. We tend to boil a bunch of them at once, shell them, then throw them in the fridge for quick snacks. They’re also great for adding to soups.

Description
Quail eggs and chicken eggs differ in several key aspects, including size, flavor, nutritional content, and culinary applications.
- Size: Quail eggs are significantly smaller than chicken eggs, typically about one-third the size. Their petite size makes them an attractive choice for appetizers, garnishes, and decorative dishes.
- Flavor: Quail eggs have a richer, more intense flavor compared to chicken eggs. Some describe their taste as slightly gamey or earthy, with a creamy texture that adds a unique dimension to dishes.
- Nutritional Content: While quail eggs are small, they pack a nutritional punch. They contain similar nutrients to chicken eggs but in higher concentrations per ounce, including protein, vitamins A, B12, and D, as well as minerals like iron and zinc.
- Culinary Applications: Quail eggs are prized for their delicate size and flavor, making them ideal for hors d’oeuvres, salads, and decorative touches on dishes. They can be hard-boiled, pickled, fried, or used raw in dishes like sushi.
