Irish egg cookbook - Nuala Cullen

Eggs are the perfect food. They taste good, cook quickly and can be eaten at any time of the day or night. In addition they are an essential ingredient in all kinds of baking and desserts.

Just think of buttery soft-boiled eggs broken into a bowl and served with warm toast. Or egg flips made with hot milk, a pinch of nutmeg and sugar, and sometimes a dash of sherry or brandy. Or the satisfaction and nourishment of a Spanish omelette.

The versatility of the egg is boundless, and in this delightful book Nuala Cullen provides a marvellous collection of recipes for using eggs on every imaginable occasion.
