Duck Eggs Poached In Chicken Broth

Two eggs, A Carrot & A Potato

Throw it all into a little homemade chicken stock.

…well, okay, you can’t exactly throw it.

Note to self:  Next time, be gentle!

I was a little too rough with my eggs and lost a bit of the whites in the broth.

After making chicken stock, I decided to make a quick lunch.  I added one finely diced carrot and one finely diced potato to about 3 cups of my freshly made chicken stock.  I simmered it for approximately 4 minutes, the carrot was still crisp.  I turned up the heat, brought the chicken stock to a boil and poached two duck eggs.  This was 5-6 minutes well-spent on a delicious lunch.

    Hi Helen,
    Those are from the Hong Kong Market…they sell 6 in little packages in one of the refrigerated sections. I love the gorgeous color and richness of duck egg yolks.
