      A lot of good info. Recipes are logical and easy to follow.
    • 3/5
      I was excited to be awarded this book, but found the recipes to be less than inspiring. The book might be better suited to someone who is just starting out on their own rather than someone who has been cooking for complicated diets for many years. The pictures are done well, adding a nice visual component to the text.
    • 5/5
      Amazing! I love, love, love eggs and I love the many myriad ways this cookbook gives you to prepare, present and incorporate them in every kind of dish. (It even talks about how to raising chicken for having your own egg-makers in your life!) I would advise this book to anyone who loves the incredible, edible egg! I had an amazing time trying these recipes and falling in love with surprises dishes I'd never heard of or had only seen in restaurants. The recipes are incredibly easy to follow and the pictures are gorgeous! Get yours as soon as you can.

      The Egg Cookbook provides a great variety of recipes; something for every meal. The information on chickens: breeds, egg specifics, things to consider if planning to own, was interesting even; if like me, your attitude is, "Not in my backyard".
    • 5/5
      Everything you ever wanted to know about eggs and the sundry ways they can be cooked. The early chapters about raising chickens and what are the best kind for backyards was very informative and helpful, especially as more and more people have their own chicken coops. The recipes include basic egg preparation for breakfast as well as a world of egg dishes for every meal. I particularly liked seeing the vegetarian and paleo entrees for healthier eating. This is definitely a completist egg cookbook!

      I was very excited to receive The Egg Cookbook through the Early Reviewers program. Since receiving it, I've tried a few of the recipes - the curry poached eggs were delicious, if a little too involved for a quick poaching in my opinion - and they've all worked out and been easy to follow. My biggest issue with this book (perhaps this is only true for the ebook?) is that there were no pictures! Not one, unless you count the cover! Maybe this is just me, but I rarely purchase cookbooks without photos - I love seeing what the final product will be, and often it's a photo that makes the decision of what I'm cooking for me.
    • 5/5
      A great book that gives you simple but delicious recipes. In addition to the recipes, there is information about chickens (types, how to feed, egg quality, etc) and different types of eggs. This is a good book if you want to know how to raise chickens.

      The humble egg receives the King's treatment in this comprehensive cookbook! From egg background to sourcing, care and curiosities, the Egg Cookbook thoroughly represent what's great about eggs. Recipes are straightforward and provide excellent kitchen tips for novices and foodies alike. The quiche recipe that we've made was a good representation of the quality of the recipes - we look forward to trying additional recipes in the future. My only regret is that there were no photos in the ebook. We deem this cookbook... Eggcellet!
    • 4/5
      Really a good overview of the standards we all do like fried eggs or boiled eggs. But it is good to have some ideas for some that I think to order out at a restaurant but not make at home. This should inspire me to try some new ones! Like having color pictures as well. This is the first cookbook I've had as an ebook so we'll have to see how I do with that.

      I decided to read my Egg Cookbook before bed this fine evening. Not the smartest thing I've ever done, because needless to say, I just finished a large plate of scrambled eggs! Now what should I do? I can't go to sleep, I'm stuffed! :)I enjoyed reading about the various types of eggs and chickens. I enjoyed learning how to raise chickens at home if I wanted to! I learned a whole bunch of tips and tricks related to eggs that I never knew and am glad to know! It's nice to know that you're buying more than just a cookbook with this purchase! The recipes seem great to me! Several I am familiar with and the directions make sense to me. While others are new, and I can't wait to try them out!If nothing else, I think everyone would enjoy reading all of the Chef's Tips that are embedded within most of the recipes! These are the sorts of things that Food Network chefs get paid the big bucks to mention in their programs! For example, add another egg to a curdled mayonnaise to fix it. Another one: Rather than crank up the heat on your fried eggs to make them cook faster, cover them with a lid for 30 seconds to steam them! This prevents them from turning rubbery with hard brown edges!I'm so full! Goodnight! Full Disclosure: I was given a free, Kindle version of the book to review thanks to LibraryThing. I subtracted one star because I had no pictures to look at! :(

      Very interesting book. There are many interesting recipes, some I found to be unique uses for the humble egg! I particularly enjoyed the discussion about eggs themselves and their producers, the chickens. Pictures for some or all of the recipes would have been a wonderful, if not necessary, addition.

      If you love eggs, this is a must have for your cookbook collection! Instructions are written step-by-step and very easy to follow. All the ingredients required are easily found at your local supermarket, no having to hunt for items at specialty food stores. The day I received this I made the Potato and Egg Salad.....YUMMMMMMMM! From perfect scrambled eggs to desserts, this book has them all.
    • 5/5
      A great cookbook filled with many truly yummy recipes. I really enjoyed the bonus info on raising chickens.

      *Early Reviewer: Ebook"This book is a fount of information on all things egg, and a must for anyone looking to advance their skills past simple scrambling. For any question you have about eggs, the answer are in this book. In addition to the recipes, there's a wealth of information about the types of eggs you can buy in grocery stores, the types of chickens from which they come, and answers to questions we've all asked, such as "What's the difference between brown and white eggs?" (Spoiler: it's the chickens’ earlobes.) Sometimes it was a bit too much information for those of us only looking to eat the eggs, not grow the chickens, but most of the information was useful. Particularly useful are the definitions of the labels used to sell eggs, such as "farm fresh" or "pastured."And now for the recipes. The recipes start with the basic ways we prepare eggs- scrambling, poaching, over-easy, etc. - with clear directions and tips to make the perfect egg. Then the book moves on to full blown recipes: spicy cheese and olive squares, egg drop soup, huevos rancheros, pumpkin soufflés, meringues, numerous quiches, omelets, and frittatas, and even protein smoothies for the workout enthusiast. Also included is a section of Paleo diet egg recipes. Each recipe has tips to avoid common cooked egg pitfalls, like rubbery edges or separating bases. In addition to the 101 recipes included, there's information on how to prepare eggs ahead of time, save egg leftovers, and even freeze egg yolks for later use. The eBook version is easy to navigate and the links all work well, making it easy to skip to desired recipes and sections. I highly recommend this book for anyone who, like me, feels like their skills stop at scrambling.
