About Quail egg

Quail eggs are small, nutrient-rich eggs that pack a punch of flavor and health benefits. Popular in cuisines across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East, these delicacies are prized for their creamy texture and delicate taste. Each egg is rich in protein, vitamins A, B12, D, and E, as well as minerals like iron, phosphorus, and selenium. Compared to chicken eggs, quail eggs have higher concentrations of some nutrients, making them a great option for boosting energy and supporting immunity. They also contain antioxidants that promote skin health and reduce inflammation. However, they do have slightly higher cholesterol levels, so moderation is key, especially for individuals monitoring their intake. Often used in salads, sushi, or as gourmet garnishes, quail eggs are a versatile and nutritious addition to any diet.
