Ovo de codorna, or quail egg, is a small, nutrient-dense egg commonly enjoyed in Brazilian cuisine and various culinary traditions around the world. Known for its delicate flavor and creamy texture, these eggs are often served boiled, pickled, or as a topping for salads and appetizers. Rich in protein, vitamins A, B12, and selenium, quail eggs are a great source of essential nutrients that support immune function, eye health, and energy production. Despite their size, they contain higher concentrations of certain nutrients compared to chicken eggs. However, they are also slightly higher in cholesterol, which may be a consideration for individuals monitoring their intake. Low in calories and packed with antioxidants, Ovo de codorna offers a healthy and flavorful addition to meals while delivering a satisfying boost of nutrition in a small package.
