Pasture Raised Duck Eggs available in abundance today @ballaratfarmersmarket Zoo drive Lake Wendouree 🙌🏻 Have you ever had duck eggs? Most think of duck eggs as just good for baking but they can be used exactly the same as chicken eggs in any recipe… we love them poached on sourdough! So here 4 reasons to give them a 'crack': Rich flavour: Duck eggs have a richer, creamier flavor than chicken eggs. This is because they contain more fat and protein than chicken eggs. Larger sized yolk: They have a much larger yolk-to-white ratio, which makes them so much more flavourful and richer than regular chicken eggs. Higher nutritional value: Duck eggs are more nutrient-dense than chicken eggs, containing more vitamin B12, vitamin A, and folate. They also have more protein per egg than chicken eggs. (Great for those who want a smaller nutrient packed meal) Longer shelf life: Duck eggs have a thicker shell than chicken eggs, which makes them less prone to cracking and helps them stay fresh for longer.
