What to do with all these eggs

[CindyinSD]

Great ideas for consuming eggs. But do you all now it’s unhealthy to eat so much eggs? Over here a food care institution says its unhealthy to eat more then 1 egg a day.

Eggs are okay now. The FDA has changed their minds. “Science” (cough...cough... propaganda) does that a lot.

Deviled eggs??? My shells always wanna stick to the whites making an ugly mess!

First, use day old or older eggs. Older is better. There is a membrane inside the shell and another membrane outside of the white. In a fresh egg these membranes (called the outer and inner shell membrane) conspire together to make the egg impossible to peel. If you wait a few days after it’s laid, the egg will lose moisture, causing the egg white to shrink, thus relaxing and loosening these membranes. A day or two is enough.

Put your eggs in a steaming basket or an egg steaming rack in an instant pot (or similar pressure cooker) on “steam” for 6 minutes. There should always be at least a cup of liquid in the instant pot, so add a cup of water first! When the 6 pressurized minutes are over, immediately quick release.

While the pressure is releasing, prepare an ice water bath. When the cooker can be opened, take out the eggs carefully (I use tongs) and lower them into the ice bath. When cool enough, peel immediately (under running water if necessary), dry, cover and refrigerate until you’re ready to make your deviled eggs.

I use a pressure cooker, but you can also simply steam the eggs. How long you steam them depends on your altitude and the current air pressure. I don’t like my yolks green and I live at a mile high where air pressure swings are exaggerated, so I use my pressure cooker which is always consistent. It just makes things easier.

Enjoy your homegrown deviled eggs!

Custards are always good and you can make them sweet or savory. Frittata's are great too. I often make a big one & once cooked portion and freeze it. Great grab & go for those who work or go to school. Just leave it on your desk till you're ready to eat or you could nuke it. I prefer them at room temperature.

I have the best luck with eggs that are older, maybe a couple of weeks. Also, bring water to boil, add room temp eggs, when done rinse with cold water and let cool in an ice water bath before peeling.

I use my extra eggs for dog food. The dogs love them quiched up in a pastry and 12-15 small breed eggs feeds our 4 for 24 hours.
Basically we do a margarine and flour crust plus the filling:
12+ eggs
1C flour
1C old beans or rice(cooked)
2tsp salt


The dogs love it and our food lasts longer when we do this. Plus it reinforces why they keep our birds safe. The dogs know when you are cracking eggs for them and they know where you got those eggs. At least that is how it works with my dogs.

With the days getting longer I probably need a recipe for the cats with our 16 layers.
