Quails Eggs

Free Range Quality Quail Eggs - the perect addition to your Summer picnic!

Quails Eggs (1 x Dozen)

£3.50

Absolutely delicious! These Garden Quails come from a family-run business in West Sussex, which specialises in producing the finest quality quail produce. They endeavour to recreate the quails’ natural environment and have established a healthy flock of happy garden quails, who are free to fly.

Tips for cooking & peeling:

Soft Boiled Garden Quail Eggs
Since the size of a quail egg can vary, this is not an exact science!  We suggest lowering gently into simmering water, bringing back to the boil and allowing to boil gently for approx one and a half minutes.  If you want to keep the centres soft for use later in a recipe, then plunge immediately into cold water and change the water after a few seconds for fresh cold water. 
For immediate use, just plunge once to make them cool enough to handle.  Enlist the whole family for peeling duties if you want to be sure the yolks are still soft!

Hard Boiled Garden Quail Eggs
Place the eggs in cold water in a saucepan, bring to the boil and simmer for two minutes.  Drain and replace the water with cold to cool the eggs rapidly. They are then ready to peel.
