Tried duck eggs for the first time today. Omg why aren’t more ppl aware of how much better they are than chicken eggs?!?!?
We are. However, in the markets they sell a duck egg for a dollar each, while you can buy a dozen of chicken eggs for only $ 2.50.
Only losers eat chicken eggs, 🌱🦆🥚
@@kqdwills I wish that was still the price now.
@@jimmywhitlow2012 why? You are only buying low quality eggs that are not healthy to eat and supporting this kind of business
I'm having duck egg for the first time as I type this... not a fan
Like every thing else in life, you get out what you put in. Ducks have very specific dietary needs that varies from chicken needs. They need a higher protein diet that such as a game bird feed. Chicken feed does have enough protein and too much calcium and not enough niacin. The swampy smell/ taste is probably due to the food. They should have almost carrot orange colored yolks as well. The best taste test is fried. Scrambled duck eggs are usually rubbery and not nearly as delightful to eat. Since they have less water content in the eggs, duck eggs regardless of how you are making them need to be cooked at a slower temperature so that their water content doea not evaporate before the egg is fully cooked which in the enda leads to rubbery eggs.
THIS.
I could immediately tell by her eggs that those ducks are lacking quality nutrients. My duck eggs have much larger yolks and the yolk is so thick and creamy it makes scrambling very difficult.
Over medium fried duck eggs are the business! Definitely richer yolk.
I will give that a try. I literally have 4 doz in the fridge. I was thinking of attempting a souffle.
The egg whites can be rubbery but it's a matter of time before you master it. Definitely worth a try though.
Would it not have been a much fairer comparison if you;d have not added any milk or seasoning t either egg and just fried without mixing it?
We have both chickens and ducks and both are laying. The duck eggs tend to be a little fattier and the white is less watery than a chicken egg. I find that duck eggs hold air better and are good for scrambled eggs or omlettes. As the yolk is thicker than a chicken egg they are also really nice poached as the 'runny' yolk has more body.
I prefer the taste of duck eggs way more than chicken eggs'. But I found out when you raise them together using the same feed, then their eggs taste almost the same.
This channel deserves way more subscribers!
Why are yall replying that shit to this comment?... 😐😑😒
Very interesting! Fun music intro! Love the natural nesting of your duck and chickens. What a cute duck! Classic! I never added milk to my scrambled eggs before, I'll give it a whirl someday!
You won't like them as well if you add milk.
Fun music intro? That takes all your credibility away immediately.
rather keep ducks than chickens lay way more eggs even through winter, easier to manage, cheaper to feed, more docile and kid friendly i had both prefer them over chicken more return with ducks
Hi this is Chase typing. I noticed the few ducks we had laid eggs much more frequently than the chickens did. We even had one that laid two eggs in a single day a few times. We no longer have ducks though as we didn't want to have another animal to care for so we lessened our focus to only chickens. I definitely get why you would rather keep ducks though.
I love duck meat and duck eggs much more than chickens' meat or eggs and I wish what you said were all true. But some are really not. Ducks are more messy to keep, more noisy. They lay less eggs and eat more ( muscovies) and grow slower, consume more feeds, therefore not very profitable.
@@kqdwills well its about opinions that's mine and my experience i love chickens as well i only use khaki Campbell ducks they're prolific layers
@@jasonward6723 Good for you. If anyone has enough land and live outside the big cities, then having prolific layers such as Khaki Campbell, Pekin ducks, Indian runners.. would be good choices as they lay eggs often. In my city, I had to settle with some muscovies to minimize the noise, therefore the eggs number is compromised.
@@kqdwills thats true im rural so easy for me tbh
Thank you for mentioning the duck egg shell.
When most people compare the two kinds of eggs, they always talk about size and nutritional value. Hardly anyone talks about the shells.
Duck eggs have thicker shells, so they're harder to crack open than chicken eggs. After trying duck eggs for the first time and having to go back to chicken eggs (it's hard to find duck eggs where I live), it almost felt like the chicken eggs would break open at the slightest touch.
The membrane along the inside of the duck egg is tougher than that of the chicken egg, too.
These two factors probably account for why duck eggs tend to last longer in the fridge than chicken eggs.
Chickens in western countries bones are often really weak too this is the problem with modern farmed animals they are unhealthy animals that make low quality products
Someone just gave me some duck eggs. I am realizing that I cannot eat it scrambled and when I put it in baking, my face starts to break out. Great video, you helped me to realize that I might not tolerate duck eggs
Thanks this was a great video !
Wow! I've never seen anyone scramble so fast!
Swampy? I actually cooked one this morning for the first time from a farm not far from my home. I find chicken eggs smell compared to the duck egg and I never add milk. The duck egg didn't have a smell at all during or after cooking and the taste was way better than chicken egg. Thats just my take.
I wonder what would happen if you scrambled them together, what kind of taste and texture they would result in.
BTW.. I don't suppose you could tell me how long it takes to hard boil a duck egg as compared to a chicken egg?
takes about 6 minutes for a soft duck egg bit longer 7mins for a harder yolk hope that helps duck eggs have thicker shells thats why
Thanks for the video. I bought a duckling and a chick some time ago now. Needless to say there grown now and I just got my first eggs from both on the same day. I was unsure while trying to cook them why 2 of the eggs were so big. Upon trying to crack them open noticed that it was harder to crack open. After watching your video I now know that the larger harder shell ones are from the Duck. I had assumed all the eggs came from the hen.
What do you think they're reactions would be if you didn't distingush what kind of eggs they were?
I was honestly kinda disappointed they didn’t do that.
I found that the duck egg was more rubbery then chicken eggs when I cooked them sunny side up and lightly turned over? Was this just because of the way I cooked them? Thank you for your program.
I'm not sure. Never tried on sunny side up!
Duck eggs have more protein and more bonding when cooked. Slower and less heat to cook as well. Yep, they're a bit more rubbery.
Mate2Frio Thank you.
The yolks of duck eggs are def less liquidy when cooked sunnyside up
One way to fix that is to fry them in more oil
Thanks for this video, wich breed are this duck eggs from?
She said they were from the Pekin that you saw in the video.
I just thought of this today and wondered why we don't eat duck eggs?
Turn that wonder into prayer and see what else happens!
The yolk on a fried duck egg has such a luxurious silliness to it. Definitley can attest to the swampy smell. But they taste yummy.
If you’re taste testing why do you add milk?
Scramble eggs is the worst way to eat an egg !
You might get a better idea if you just fried them over easy with no milk or seasonings other then the butter that you have to fry them in. I notice that duck eggs have that swampy taste to them too but I love the taste of them. I think maybe it is duck eggs that my egg lady has been selling me along with some regular chicken eggs since they look and taste different with that thick shell. But that is OK and I'm not going to mention it to her since I like duck eggs better.
It's almost like she's trying to drive me crazy lol why not cook them separately and not put milk and pepper in them?? It changes the profile. We have 20 ducks and 30 chickens on our farm.
Duck egg tasted better to me than the chicken egg
Duck egg was fluffier because she was scrambling it th entire time it cooked while she let the chicken egg cook in place and scrambled it after it was cooked
I kinda want to see a taste test where the person eating it doesn’t know which is which.
Why did you remove all the eggs? Especially all the duck eggs? If you're implying that you don't have many ducks, leave some eggs behind and soon enough, you'll have ducklings.
The reason for Mike o hearn’s physique
Duck eggs are superb for making sponges or any cake for that matter, no need to separate the egg white. Whip it up in one go, simple.
I'm wondering with the sizes
Variations could I use duck
Eggs in cooking or baking
Cakes... In substitution??
As you stated the egg size
Is much more in ducks
I liked you're pen hen farm
It's so cute and country
Style crisp fresh living
So healthy and free range
Is a natural source of development maturity
Yes! Duck eggs are superb for baking, I prefer them to hen eggs any day. No need to separate the whites, just whip it up together for sponges or cakes.
You say swampy I smelled oatmeal lol I thought it was from the milk I added
Duck eggs taste the best. I don't know why they don't sell them in shops.
Because they can't cram thousands of ducks into poultry facilities and make money. The ducks won't lay. Poor chickens. The way chickens are treated in the USA is horrible. Shops in the UK and EU have duck eggs. And the chickens sold for eating aren't washed in chlorine.
@@suziewhattley3917 i live in America and buy duck eggs at the natural grocery store. no problem. they take my money. voila. duck eggs are available in America fer sure.
It's not cost effective to raise ducks and not many people get used to eat duck eggs, therefore, they are not very popular in the States. They do sell them in the Asian markets though, much more expensive than chicken eggs. A dollar for only one duck eggs.
they say duck egg has a bad smell. please tell
She's so pretty.. is this USA and which state? anyways, what is the reason why duck shell is white and chicken shell is light brown?
Thank you! I'm in Georgia. Not sure why the color differences. Eggs come in all shades. The ducks I've had all lay white or green/blue eggs. I've had chickens lay everything from white, to blue, from olive, to chocolate.
@@HammockHavenFarm Do you eat Quail eggs? they are tiny and really funny looking.
Duck eggs swampy taste? They are delicious and more nutricious then chicken eggs. In my opinion duck eggs are watching better tasting than chicken eggs. Way more rich and delicious. It's like comparing whole rich milk to 1 percent. Got 4 khaki Campbells and 3 Indian runners. It's egg heaven here. Take care.
Duck egg textures remind me of turtle eggs.
Your duck eggs look like goose eggs they are huge, I just bought some duck eggs and they range between 69-80 grams each much smaller than yours
Well, the Pekin duck is one of the larger duck breeds, so that accounts for the size. However, she was correct - duck eggs do tend to be larger than chicken eggs, on average.
Best not to salt till after they're cooked fully or it messes with the results.
Interesting. I always salt as I go when cooking.
It will dry up water content in egg and egg will become rubbering
Ah but which came first
Which egg safe for pregnant time? Cheken egg or duck egg? Please tell me.
Made duck egg omelette first time today.. they smell bad & I couldn't eat.
I prefer the chicken eggs too.
I think they smell and taste a little fishy
Like for stating the weight in grams!
eat it raw with rawmilk
❤😊nice
Additional points: the duck egg yolk is significantly larger than the chicken egg yolk (see 2:19 and 2:21), and the duck egg has significantly higher cholesterol than the chicken egg too.
who cares about cholesterol?
Mixing milk with eggs is not a HEALTHY OPTION
U people need to learn eating
Swampy???
👍👍💜💯😎
Thank you for the video. However, you overcooked both. They need to be a little runny when you take them off the heat.
john mcginnis to each his own!
Not true. There is no one way to cook eggs. Running is just YOUR preference. She is not wrong!
Why milk in egg
you should have used two separate pans.....maybe all the viewers can chip in and buy you more pans
I know we’re not doing everything for science but you cross contaminated your chicken egg with your duck egg, by using the same fork and pan.
Still helpful info in your vid!!
Waste of time
I’m allergic to chicken eggs. I’ve been thinking about trying duck eggs
They have different proteins. I have a friend who is allergic to duck eggs but can eat chicken eggs. When my nephew was a baby he was sensitive to chicken eggs but had no problem with duck eggs.
