Creamy, cheesy duck eggs

Okay, I ‘m starting to think that I think too much about food. I was reading this post last night and guess what happened? I dreamt about eggs. Yes, you heard that right. Eggs with beautiful yellow yolks. Please tell me I’m not the only one who does this!

Upon waking this morning, I remembered the scrambled eggs I made for A a few weekends back. These were not just your everyday scrambled eggs, however. These were scrambled duck eggs. These eggs had an incredibly creamy texture and they had a (more than) slight cheesiness that made A think that I had added some cheddar while scrambling them. They are richer in flavour than chicken eggs, but I would first need to try them with soy sauce to decide if I would prefer them over chicken eggs!

    Oh yum – duck eggs! And no, you are not the only one; I am constantly dreaming about food, especially when I have something complicated I am working out in a recipe. A chef I know told me recently that his special for the evening came to him in his sleep.

    Also, the picture of your 2 kitties looking at the laptop is so cute that even my Husband saved it as his wallpaper and now follows WCB to see all the updates.

    Lisa: So Bella & Tasha have become cover girls – chuckle, chuckle!

    Clare: Thanks for the tip – I will have to get more at the next market and try them poached!

    Wow Cin – the influence of the net is spreading into your dreams now! Your subconscious must have been thinking “eggs for breakfast, eggs for breakfast!”

    And those eggs look incredibly good – so yellow. I have always wanted to try duck eggs but haven’t seen them offered anywhere except maybe the Vic Markets. If Booroondara or Collingwood’s on this weekend, I might pop down and see what I can find.

    Yeah, look what you did to me! I bought the eggs from Collingwood, but the next market is second Sat of October.
