    Eggs Benedict: A new twist to an old favorite!

    My youngest daughter, Hannah, stayed with my aunt in Beaumont last week. While there, they went to a blackberry farm to pick berries. The owner had some ostrich eggs and gave them a couple, one of which made its way back to Paris!

    Last night, I drilled it with a 1/2" paddle bit, then emptied it into a bowl and scrambled it before it was doled out atop english muffins, canadian bacon and topped with hollandaise sauce for Egg Benedict!









    It tasted very much like chicken eggs, although it had a slightly different consistency (may have just been the way I cooked it). One egg fed six girls, one 18 year old boyfriend, my wife and me with a bit left over!

    That's neat. At the George W Bush library they have another twist with biscuits topped with pulled pork eggs sausage gravy. They called it a country eggs benedict

      Ostrich eggs are all fun and games unless you're the one who has to collect them from the ostrich...


      Not as easy as it looks!

          Never done it myself, but I've seen Mike Rowe do it a couple times and I think I'll let him keep doin it. Haha

                Man that looks delicious!

                Excuse my ignorance here but why the need to drill it and not just crack it open like a regular chicken egg?

                  The shell is too hard! You'll be at it for a day and half trying to crack it.

                      Hannah wanted to save the shell. But next time, I want to keep the yolk intact and try to poach it!

                              Make sure the egg is good and not rotten. I drilled into a emu egg once and thank got I was not in the kitchen when it exploded and stunk up the whole yard for a couple of days. Puked a little too.
