Nifs Dilled Quail Eggs Recipes

Steps:

• Heat water to boiling, gently set eggs into water. Boil 5-6 minutes and then rinse under cold water. Do NOT use a rolling boil or the eggs will break. If your eggs do break, keep their yolks anyway.
• Let cool completely. Peel eggs and cut in half lengthwise. Pop yolks out into a small bowl.
• To yolks, add mayo and dill. Mix very well, then salt and pepper to taste.
• Put yolk mixture into a plastic sandwich bag. Pipe mixture into each egg half.
• Garnish with fresh dill or chives.

Steps:

• Cover eggs with 2 inches of water in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand 2 minutes. Transfer eggs to an ice-water bath; let cool completely.
• Peel eggs and trim pointy ends flat, so they stand upright. Trim 1/4 of each egg from other end; gently scoop yolks into a bowl.
• Using a fork, mash yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, and lemon juice until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Using a pastry bag fitted with a small open-star tip (such as Ateco #18), pipe yolk mixture into egg whites in a swirling motion. Serve, topped with dill sprigs.

Steps:

• Put eggs in container, followed by the other ingredients. Liquid should cover the eggs.
• Cover the container, store in refrigerator for 3 days (or longer). Swirl contents occasionally.
• Drain, and serve chilled as an appetizer. Reserve some fresh dill as a garnish.

Steps:

• Eggs: cover 24 eggs with cold water and bring to a boil. Once water begins to boil remove from heat and allow to sit for 15 minutes, followed by 5 minute cold water bath. Peel.
• Brine: Bring vinegar, water and salt to a boil, remove from heat.
• Jars: 4 quart jars, cleaned in dishwasher or with hot soapy water, rinse thoroughly. Each jar needs 1 tbsp of mustard seed, fresh dill (1 flower), 2 cloves of peeled garlic, and 1 whole jalapeno pepper.
• Run toothpick through each egg and place 6-8 per jar (depending on size of eggs), cover with brine and seal with lid.
• Jars must be kept in refrigerator, eggs ready within 1 week, but best to wait at least 2 weeks.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a frying pan, heat enough water to cover the egg(s) to a low boil. Add salt.
• Crack an egg into a small bowl. Quickly dip bowl into the water. Slide the raw egg into the water. Immediately slide the other egg into the water in the same fashion.
• TURN OFF HEAT but leave on burner! Cover pan with lid - DO NOT UNCOVER and let sit for 4 to 6 minutes. You can uncover to check them, starting at 4 minutes. You'll know they're done if the white is not really jiggly.
• Using a slotted spoon, gently place eggs on a tea towel. If you use scented detergents or fabric softeners on your towels, do not use them. Instead, slide egg(s) onto good quality paper towels, so the towel doesn't fall apart. Let sit for a few seconds to drain the water.
• Place eggs on to toast, a slice of tomato, steamed spinach and/or a piece of low fat cheese.
