Nifs Dilled Quail Eggs Recipes

Steps:

• Place eggs in a saucepan and add enough water just to cover. Bring to a boil and cook for 3 minutes. Drain and transfer to cold water. When eggs are cool enough to handle, peel them and transfer to sterilized canning jars.
• Meanwhile, in an enameled saucepan bring remaining ingredients to a boil. Remove from heat and allow to steep for at least 2 hours. Pour over eggs and wipe rim of jars clean with a damp towel. Place lids on the jars and screw on band tops. Process jars in a hot water bath for 10 minutes. Remove from the hot water and set aside to cool. Jars should seal as they cool. Any jars that do not seal properly should be refrigerated and consumed within 2 weeks.
• Allow properly sealed jars to sit at least 2 weeks before eating.

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:

• 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:

• 1. Rinse the eggs under warm water. Place in a saucepan and cover with cold salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 4 minutes. Drain, rinse under cold water and peel. Pat dry.
• 2. Cut the eggs in half lengthwise. Scoop out the yolks with a very small spoon into a bowl; mash. Mix with mayonnaise, mustard, Tabasco sauce and salt. Carefully fill the whites with the yolk mixture. Sprinkle with chives and arrange on a decorative cocktail tray.

Steps:

• Place quail eggs in small saucepan; add enough cold water to cover by 1 inch. Add 1 tablespoon vinegar. Bring to boil. Remove pan from heat; cover and let stand 5 minutes. Add ice cubes to pan; let stand 15 minutes to cool.
• Gently tap top and bottom ends of each egg on work surface to loosen shell. Starting at bottom (rounded) end of 1 egg, carefully remove shell, pinching and squeezing egg between fingers. Repeat with remaining eggs.
• Place peeled eggs in 1 1/2- to 2-cup glass jar with lid. Add remaining 1 cup vinegar. Close jar; refrigerate at least 1 day and up to 2 days. Add 1 tablespoon coarse salt. Close jar and shake gently; chill 24 hours. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 week ahead. Keep chilled.

Steps:

• With a spoon, gently place the eggs in boiling water. Boil for 4 minutes and place eggs in egg cups. Immediately crack top of egg off with a knife, salt and pepper to taste. If you let the eggs sit, they will continue to cook.
• While eggs are boiling, toast the bread and spread with butter. Cut toast into strips - I try for 5. Dip the toast strips into the runny yolk - YUM!
• After the yolk is gone, you can scoop out the white with a spoon and eat that as well.
