I have done 12 regular eggs and bottled them and left them in the Cave to mature. I also did quails eggs in the same way for an aperitiv for my Danish friends and they really raved about them. My french neighbour was sceptical at first but then decided she liked them and came over yesterday for the recipe. A great success, thankyou for sharing.

They tasted good and looked sensational. I did little cubes of rye bread, a bit of lettuce and then skewered the egg to the bread.

They looked like they'd still got the shells on! They went down okay, I can't say I am fussed about them, there are 2 left, which I epect we'll eat if we're desperate. I like my eggs "real" so these don't do it for me Back to top Petite Holder Joined: 11 Mar 2008 Posts: 88 Posted: Sun Apr 06, 2008 2:54 pm    Post subject: Oh well never mind, I like them but only go mad on them every blue moon or so.
