This helpful book opens with a comprehensive photographic identification guide to all the well-known types of egg, such as hen, duck and quail, as well as more exotic varieties, including ostrich and emu. Each type is examined in detail and accompanied by information on nutrition, buying and storing, and guides you through preparing every kind of egg dish, from simple boiling and poaching to making meringues, souffles and sauces. The recipe section includes over 50 classic egg dishes. Each is photographed beautifully, and step by step instructions ensure great results every time.
