Hey there! A friend tipped your site and I’ve been surfing it and found this post about eggs. LOVE IT! I buy pastured eggs too but I’ve never heard that scrambling denatures the proteins! Thanks for the great recipe!

I think you should get your own “all things local food” hotline.

Thanks for posting this! My mother always scoffs at the “egg white” option and proclaims the yolk to be the healthiest part.

Stoddart Farm does an egg CSA and offers both chicken and duck eggs. If you’re interested I’ll send you information. I like their duck eggs. So does my mom. Neither of us subscribes to the CSA because we don’t eat enough eggs. Instead we buy their eggs when we can get them. Stoddart was a partner Everdale’s CSA this year, of which I’m a member, and so I’d sometimes buy eggs if they had extra or I’d order them for the next time. Some weeks I bought a dozen for my mom. One week I split a dozen with a friend.

They’re also at the Wychwood market on Saturdays and sometimes has eggs there. I’ve bought half dozens from her. When you live alone it doesn’t make sense to buy a full dozen if you don’t eat them regularly.

You should meet me at Wychwood one Saturday. We’ll have breakfast!

(Stoddart also offers meat and grain shares, and all their shares are offered separately as different CSA programs.)

I love poached eggs! We don’t have a local farm nearby, but the Whole Foods in our area stocks some amazing AA eggs from a family run farm just two hours away. They are the best we have had.

I am allergic to eggs, but I decided to try to rid myself of the allergy. Through information gathering (research is a word too widely tossed around these days), I have discovered that soft boiling and poaching eggs are the only way to not kill off the active enzymes, which can help me to digest them better while my immune system attacks them. I always thought cooking them longer would be best, but I was way off.
Thanks for the recipe, can’t wait to try it!

Egg yolks! People are still eating them, thank god! I swear, if I hear one more “I just made myself an egg white omelette”, I will scream. That’s not an omelette, that’s an abomination.

I’ll admit it, lately eggs have given me the heebie jeebies. I can’t get over the thought of eating what is essentially chicken menstruation.

Another reason to buy local: All a company has to do to put “free range” on their label is cut a hole in the wall of the chicken coop, so the chickens can “roam” from a cram-packed shed into a limited outdoor space that is equally crowded and full of poop. Not to mention what they do to the male chickies. It breaks my heart.
