How is cooking with duck eggs different from chicken eggs?
A friend gave me some duck eggs. Can I use them the same way as regular chicken ones? Do people eat them scrambled and stuff like that, or is it best to put them in dishes where the eggs are used for texture?
Thanks!
Duck eggs are bigger- if they are huge maybe you can alter your recipe by using less duck eggs that you would chicken eggs. I would use them any place that I use chicken eggs.
duck eggs are primarily used for baking(there larger-with a slightly different taste) but there also good if used for frittatas and dishes like that were the egg isn’t the only thing you taste!
Duck eggs would most likely equal 2 small chicken eggs in baking. My aunt used them in cornbread they have a richer taste.
You can use them for baking or you can eat them like you do chicken eggs. The main difference is the size and when eaten fried or scrambled the texture is a little different, but they are still good to eat.
