Chapter 2

“And Ryaba’s chicken laid a testicle: not simple, but golden…” Remember? And the eternal philosophical question: “What used to be – a chicken or an egg?” And here is the proverb: “An expensive egg in Christ’s day.” So you can remember forever.

From ancient times people treated the egg as a symbol. In a large number of prehistoric burials in Russia and Sweden, clay eggs were discovered that embodied immortality. In the language of Egyptian hieroglyphs, an egg is a sign of origin, a symbol of the secret of life. Alchemists believed that the egg is the container of thought. The Chinese believed that the first man jumped out of an egg that was dropped from heaven and floated in the primeval waters. The golden egg from which Brahma hatched is equivalent to a circle with a dot in the center. In ancient Egypt, the Universe was defined as an egg, “conceived at the time of the Great One from dual strength”, and the god Ra was depicted standing in an egg.

History is history, symbol is symbol, and we, living today, still eat eggs in the same way as we did many centuries ago. So, for example, among the ancient Romans, dinner began with eggs and ended with fruits, hence the Latin dictum Ab ovo (usque ad

malum) – “from the egg (to the apple)”, that is, from beginning to end.

Salads, sauces, main dishes, cakes, pies and much more are cooked with eggs. Therefore, the idea arose to collect culinary recipes in one book, one of the components of which is an egg. It is unnecessary to remind about the benefits and necessity of eating eggs, which is the main protein product that is absorbed by the human body by more than 90%.

In this book you will find both the simplest cooking suggestions and rather complicated recipes, one of which can be a guide to creating your signature dish – decorating a festive table. We also offer some culinary masterpieces from national cuisines, available in the preparation of any housewife. Of course, eggs of various birds, and even reptiles and reptiles, are eaten, but this, as they say, is a different story. In our recipes – chicken eggs, but if desired, they can be replaced with eggs of other birds (quail or goose), you just need to remember that the weight of the eggs depends on the variety and species.

COLD AND HOT SNACKS

The most common and easiest way to cook eggs is to boil hard-boiled, hard-boiled eggs in a “bag”. Before cooking, the eggs are washed in warm water, and the spots remaining on the shell are wiped with salt.

When boiling eggs without shells, salt, vinegar are added to the water, brought to a boil, and then, stirring the water so that a funnel forms, a raw egg is released into it. Cooking time 3—4 minutes with a slight boil. The yolk of an egg cooked in this way should be semi-liquid.

Hard boiled eggs

Hard boiling eggs 8—10 minutes, counting from the moment of boiling water. With longer cooking, the protein becomes too hard and the bright yellow color of the yolk disappears. Boiled eggs are immediately dipped in cold water to make it easier to remove the shell.

Serve eggs in shells hot or cold on a plate.

Scrambled eggs

Wash the washed eggs in boiling water and cook for 3—4 minutes. You can weld them differently. Eggs are placed in a pan and boiled water so that water covers them. After 10 minutes water is drained, boiling water is poured again and after 2—3 minutes the eggs are taken out. The protein of an egg cooked in this way does not harden, thickens into a tender white mass, the yolk remains semi-liquid. Soft-boiled eggs are served only hot.

Soft-boiled eggs are stored for a long time in a cool and dry place. In a few days they will not lose their taste if they are put in boiling water for 20 seconds before use.

Eggs in the bag

We cook eggs in the same way as soft-boiled eggs, but the cooking time is 5—6 minutes. After cooking, they are doused with cold water and served hot on the table. “Bagged” eggs can be served with different side dishes, sauce.

Baked eggs

We pierce the eggs on both sides with a needle (so that they do not crack when baking), wrap them in a damp cloth and bury them in hot ash for 8—10 minutes.
