Do you eat any raw eggs, or nearly raw ones? Because, I don't dare nowadays, however they say so and so, but I'm longing for them every now and then, in fact I like most of my egg dishes just hardly cooked or half-cooked, runny, juicy.

I love runny eggs and always have my boiled and fried eggs runny.
My hens are vaccinated gainst Salmonella - yet another reason to keep some chooks in your back garden 8) :lol:

Please don't, that's a picture of their biggest continuous empire during Dzingiz Khan, they came further west under Bhatu.
Beef in modern times, I don't know historically. :lol: :lol:

That mental picture, moreso than HFW or Jamie Oliver, could persuade me towards vegetarianism :wink:

I like a soft yolk in my fried and boiled eggs, but Brian likes the whites snotty too!!! yucky man. I keep telling him he's disgusting!!!!
But I love making lemon curd too when I've got too many eggs, and I have made the occasional mayo, so no, I don't worry too much about it, if my numbers up, then so be it!!!!
-

Only fair since you keep telling us he's disgusting! :wink: :lol:

Aren't the eggs you buy in shops from hens that have been vaccinated against salmonella? (they have the ''lion mark'' in the UK)
-
My grandfather always had a raw egg with sugar and some whiskey in it for breakfast, I used to drink this too as a child
For hygienic reasons: if I remember correctly, it takes 8 minutes of full boiling/ frying etc to kill Salmonella... I only boil my egg about 3 min and am still living
But as I'm eating my eggs even if they're over a month out of date and not too well fried over potatoes/ noodles, it can't be too bad (free range organic ones)
Battery hen eggs are less likely to be contaminated, as they obviously have less chances to pick up anything :(
-
Well, that's why I'm asking, 'cos there are all these news of contaminated with all sorts of bacteria poultry products all the time.

You need to keep a few chickens gobs :!:
I bought some top quality eggs for the Christmas period in case I didn't have enough home made ones for all my visitors.
The eggs I bought were Free-range Woodland kept chickens eggs, and compared to my girls eggs they were pale and tasteless :!:

I know , Aunty, I know. But a lot of things to consider before I start.
On second thought, I'm probably over worrying this , aren't I?

They don't have to be bright yellow yolks to be good, just look nicer!
A couple of years ago it was revealed that a lot of companies used eggs that had had die added to the feed I think it was to make the yolks look nice and yellow, gradually that has now stopped I think, but it all depends on what the chickens eat!
Didn't Munty say that lots of greens make the yolks a nice yellow?
Then you would think that free ranged woodland chooks would eat a fair amount of greenery, or mud, worms, beetles, crickets........... lol

Yes it's greens that give flavour and make the yolks bright. I think even if the hens are freerange it doesn't mean they necessarily have much grass in their wooland.
