        American Egg Board - Recipes

Today's site from the American Egg Board offers an excellent collection of,
naturally enough, egg recipes. Gentle Subscribers who are a bit skittish
about doing more than frying an egg, will find a tempting range of dishes
to lure them on to more adventurous culinary fare.

"A hen requires 24 to 26 hours to produce an egg. Thirty minutes later, she
starts all over again. ... The egg shell may have as many as 17,000 tiny
pores over its surface. Through them, the egg can absorb flavors and odors.
Storing them in their cartons helps keep them fresh. ... Eggs age more in
one day at room temperature than in one week in the refrigerator. ... About
240 million laying hens produce approximately 5.5 billion dozen eggs per
year in the United States. ... White shelled eggs are produced by hens with
white feathers and ear lobes. Brown shelled eggs are produced by hens with
red feathers and red ear lobes. ... To tell if an egg is raw or
hard-cooked, spin it! If the egg spins easily, it is hard-cooked but if it
wobbles, it is raw." - from the website

The site presents its recipes in various categories from basic preparation
to egg classics. From main dishes such as Devilled Eggs Florentine to
appetizers like Asparagus Crepes, there are egg dishes for a host of menu
requirements. The site also rounds up TV and magazine recipes in one
convenient location to make finding that Cherry Tomato & Portabella Omelet
dish easy.
