Publisher's Synopsis
This is a list of egg dishes. Eggs are laid by females of many different species, including birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish, and have been eaten by mankind for thousands of years.
Bird and reptile eggs consist of albumen (egg white) and villus (egg yolk), contained within various thin membranes all surrounded by a protective eggshell.
Popular choices for egg consumption are chicken, duck, quail, roe, and caviar, but the egg most often consumed by humans is the chicken egg, by a wide margin.
