We were invited friends house for dinner last night. My wife brought potato salad. I like lots of eggs in my potato salad. We had a couple of dozen duck what in the fridge so my wife boiled up a dozen and added them. It's about half by volume hard boiled duck eggs and it's delicious.

I do not envy your dog for all of the farts he will be blamed for.

I don't find that they make me fart. At least not more than I do anyway.

I find duck eggs to be pretty strong in the taste department! Like, more "eggy". I think I like it!

But the price at $12 for six (versus a pack of chicken eggs which is $1.50 for half a dozen) makes it hard to pick up.

Do you find the duck eggs worth it?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

We have ducks. There are always two or three dozen eggs in the fridge. They are definitely far superior in baking.

I've eaten all kinds of eggs. The whites of duck eggs are more toothy and the yolks stickier.

Where do you find eggs for this price?

It’s usually double that where I am.

You could raise your own ducks to get duck eggs lol. Jk. Ducks are very hard to care for and require lots of work (I own 11 ducks).

Really? I find that they are no problem at all. We keep them in their own yard during the summer then bunk them with the chickens in the winter.

I mean, if you are versed with keeping poultry, them they're pretty easy. But most people aren't farmers lol. Exotic breeds like muscovies can be problematic in the winter because they're susceptible to frostbite, but a good coating of Vaseline on their caruncles and feet keeps them protected for a few days.

So egg salad with potatoes?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Potategg salad.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

not to yuck on anyones yumm, but for this guy, right here, with my two thumbs, i can't deal with hard boiled eggs, i like hard fried, i like scrambled, i can't deal with runny or hard boiled eggs, at all, the runniness due to the change in liquid/gellatinous constitencies i think, and the hard boiled from the overpowering sulfur, just can't deal

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

More for me!

I'm with you. This is my nightmare. I wonder, do the hosts like an absurd amount of hardboiled eggs in their potato salad too? Lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

They didn't complain.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Duck eggs are delicious. I have 11 ducks, 8 of which are laying females. I get so many eggs lmao. I can't eat them all on my own lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They're good for baking. My wife makes pumpkin pie with duck egg custard. It's delicious. We have one laying hen.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Omg now I gotta make duck egg custard.
