About Small eggs

Small eggs, such as quail, bantam, or pheasant eggs, are nutrient-dense and packed with essential vitamins and minerals. Often associated with Asian, European, and Mediterranean cuisines, these eggs are prized for their delicate flavor and versatility in dishes like salads, appetizers, and hearty breakfasts. They are rich in protein, vitamin B12, selenium, and choline, which support muscle repair, brain health, and energy production. Small eggs also contain healthy fats and antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin that promote eye health. While they're a nutritious addition to any diet, it's important to consume them in moderation, as they do contain dietary cholesterol. Perfectly sized for creative plating or snacking, small eggs are a delightful and nutrient-packed choice for culinary exploration.
