Maybe ya oughta tell the good doc how many piggies you eat every summer

HA! Not near as many as you think. I like to cook them but truly burnt out on 'em many years ago!! Just ask Mike aka BowH.

But hey…..you can still call me PB!!

Merry Christmas Brother!

No way to prove that, but sinking to egg-white only...kale, quinoa, look out Trader Joes

Had more Shirred eggs this AM.

Making them with a slice of diced up Canadian bacon and topping with shaved Parmesan cheese works GREAT!!!

Yum Yum!!

pancetta, proscuitto, sopressata and parm

Just made Quackshirred eggs! Got some xtra large duck eggs at the farmers market. Roasted pasilla pepper, two slices of Canadian bacon, and Oaxaca cheese!

Washing it down with a black Latin and football!

wife and I had them this morning. Aged Scottish Cheddar, two large eggs, diced scallions and chopped bacon. Damn those are good.

My family does something similar, “coddled eggs,” for our traditional Xmas morning breakfast. Dad got the little pots in Ireland some fifty or so years ago.

Looks good

Those are great looking pieces of pottery. The red ribbon a special order dish? You do anything else in them?

The pots have gotten a little chipped up over the years. The lids screw on and you have to match the right lid with the right pot or they won't fit. I don't recall that we've ever used them for anything else.

The red ribbon was pepper-less (how anyone can dislike pepper is beyond me).

you can use those little molds to make killer egg custard

I was thinking along those lines myself, Sam. Creme bruile or such.

Thanks for the reply Ella.

Or flan

By golly….I'm going to make some right NOW!! Yolks and all!

Ella I want some of those litte pots. Those are great!!!

Had more shirred eggs this AM.

This is getting to be my morning ritual! (YUM YUM!)


Thanks Sam!!!

I dunno why we never used them for anything else. Custard or flan seems like a good idea. If you google "egg coddlers," most seem to have metal tops versus the ceramic tops that we have. I imagine that makes threading the tops/bottoms easier.

I'm digging the shirred eggs for a heartier everyday breakfast. This forum has really pumped up our meals the last year or two.

I spent the last hour looking for the clay ones like you have and nothing!!

Not too sure about the health thing and shirred eggs, however!

Based on the pictured at this link, I believe they're made by Wade?

Dad's had them for as long as I can remember though we've busted a couple over the decades.

I don't know that there is such thing as a satisfying healthy breakfast. No other meal so calls for butter, fried pork, eggs, biscuits, cheese....

Excellent!! Thank You so much for that!!
