You did get it right! Peahen eggs taste like chicken eggs to me.

I have chicken, duck and guinea - all taste different to me! I though peahen might be like duck, large with rich yolks and delicate, clear whites?

I’m glad I’m not the only one who loves some red-eye gravy!!!!!!

When I have it on biscuits, I cook it with lower salt so I can use more (I don't use flour in mine though) gravy...a little biscuit with my gravy . Of course now I eat low carb so that's OK. I can have all the gravy I want

If you don't use flour what do you use?

I take tenderloins and cook them with salt, pepper, and butter if I need the fat. Then once they are cooked, I remove the loins and add strong coffee and add it to the pan and simmer until it's as thick and concentrated as I want it. It's more of an aus jus than a thickened gravy. My dad did it this way, but with salt pork. That's good too, but he would only put about a Tbs of gravy on a biscuit. I like lots of gravy, so I prefer the pan drippings from the tenderloin because I can control the salt. Then when I used to eat real biscuits, I would tear my biscuits into chunks and top with chopped tomatoes (salted to taste), then add aus jus/gravy to my preference. Sounds weird I know, but delicious. I have come across red eye gravy as a creamed gravy, but that just wasn't how my dad made it. Probably where he was raised. Redeye gravy is supposed to be a big red circle of coffee in a big bowl of pork fat. It separates and looks like a red eye staring at you if you imagine it well. I never liked it as a child. Apparently it grows on you...
