Re: Re: grab-and-go breakfast? - Eggs

[Guest guest]

Try to get the best pastured eggs you can get your hands on. We have several

different kinds here but only one source that we trust enough to consume raw.

Never had a problem but years ago one of my daughter's and I ate a pastrued

egg (lightly cooked) and got sick (not real sick , just some nausea, my dd

vomited once and we had runny bowels.)

In regards to the raw eggs....is their concern over bacteria? Is their certain

eggs that should or shouldn't be used?

Re: grab-and-go breakfast?

Hi Allan,

We use egg nog from time to time also

we combine

1c milk

1-3eggs

1/2-1tsp vanilla

1/3-1TBS Maple Syrup or Molasses or Raw Honey

Optional

1TBS Gelatin

1TBS Cocoa or Carob powder

You can use an immersion blender (easiest)

or food processor or blender

if you don't have access to any of these

a shaker may suffice.

After you crack them, don't let them set out at

room temp. The egg inside is probably ok, but

the shell usually is not (given how they are laid!).

When you crack them, the interior becomes contaminated,

and if it then sits out, it can cause problems. Also do not

eat any with cracks. Don't immerse them in cold water

(that can force stuff from the outside into the inside).

Probably it is safest to eat them always from

the same flock ... I think when you have your own

chickens you tend to become immune to whatever it

is they are carrying.

==> I'll second this. My friend's baby ended up in hospital when she followed

NT's outlines for feeding a baby but gave a battery egg from the corner store.

Baby had a huge allergic reaction: hives, turned green, collapsed and vomited.

He hadn't had a problem with battery eggs before but they'd always been

well-cooked. I think my friend lost interest in NT after that unfortunately.

Needless to say, I don't go recommending undercooked eggs to friends with babies

anymore ;-)
