Hey everyone! I heard something yesterday which struck me as odd so I thought I'd ask you guys...I was told you couldn't eat cooked goose egg...*insert surprised face here* they said you could only eat them soft boiled or sunny side up. Is this true?? Can't be but if it is why?? Thanks!! :)

Never heard such a thing. You can use goose eggs the same way you use chicken eggs just adjust for the size of the egg. A large chicken egg is about 1/4 cup of raw egg so make your adjustment with that in mind.

There is a taste difference due mainly to the fact that geese are grazers so their diet impacts the taste of the egg. It also contributes largely to the huge and bright yolk of the egg.

Use goose eggs for omelets, scrambled with peppers, onions and tomatoes, for baking (they make everything more moist and dense). If you make homemade pasta use goose eggs instead of chicken. You will be amazed by the difference.
 
Thanks! I knew from what I have read before and even ate them as a child that it was a very odd thing to hear.

We have free range chickens and even the difference between them and store bought eggs is crazy!!

Thanks again! And I'll be on the look out for an ostrich now! Lol
 
I've eaten goose eggs in almost every way possible, except actually soft boiled. And that's just because I've never yet wanted to have that much soft boiled egg.

Sunny side up may prove a problem. I tried it once, but after I'd cooked the egg for nine minutes, the huge yolk was still refrigerator cold on top. So I flipped it and cooked it another eight minutes on the other side, which made the yolk warm but still runny inside.
 
I actually think Goose eggs are good for about anything, EXCEPT fried or soft boiled! The yolk is just so big it is overwhelming! Plus they tend to by much tougher than chickens eggs when fried. They are great fro scrambled, egg salad, omlettes, baking, etc...
 
Thanks everyone!! The guy that said this is actually...how do I say this nicely...odd. Lol. So it doesn't surprise me at all that it's not exactly right...the man thinks eating raw hamburger is ok too. *sigh* lol
