Long ago she taught me to boil my chicken eggs for 3 minutes, cover and remove from the heat for 15 minutes, then use an icewater bath.

They always come out perfectly--tender and flavorful. She also taught me the crack and roll that releases the shell so beautifully. So your recipes for duck egg cooking have a very authentic ring to me. Never having tasted a duck egg, I hard boiled three and scrambled a larger one with butter and green onion from the garden.

I just tried this and it came out perfectly done so very easy to peel, I thought the time precision was odd at first but I'll probably follow you it in the future. Jemma, I'm so glad they came out well for you!

Yes, I'm a bit of a nut with my precise times I somehow manage to do that with all my recipes! But it works well for me every time! Thanks so much for the kind words!

Especially couldn't peel them! Wait till he these beauties!! Love the exact timings - Thank you xx. Carol, thank you so very much for the kind words!
