Quail Eggs

About our pasture raised quail eggs at EdenThistle 

  

Our Quail are raised on our fields. They live in field pens moved daily in order to provide fresh, clean forage for the small birds.  The beautiful, small speckled eggs are gathered once a day after pens are moved.

Quail eggs were a new culinary experience for us when we first started raising them. Typically you hear of them served in higher-end restaurants or eateries with ethnic menus. Our family tried our first quail eggs early one spring and they were soon the most demanded food item at each meal.

Quail eggs taste similar to a hen egg, but contain a richer flavor that makes them seem like a delicacy.  Their smaller size makes them perfect to use as garnishes for many dishes, a healthy snack in the middle of the day (our kids' favorites), or pair them with sausage or bacon for a full meal. We love to eat them fried, hard boiled, pickled, or on top of salads and hamburgers--and the list could go on! With the use of "quail egg scissors" (a very handy tool we discovered), they're easy to crack and prepare for any eating event. 

Our quail eggs packages include 15 eggs/pkg. and are available for shipping.
