About Turkey egg

Turkey eggs are a nutrient-rich option originating from domesticated turkeys, primarily consumed in select cuisines or by individuals seeking alternative poultry eggs. Slightly larger than chicken eggs, they have a cream-colored shell often speckled with brown spots. Packed with protein, they support muscle repair and growth, while providing essential vitamins like B12, which aids brain function, and minerals such as selenium and phosphorus for bone health and immune support. Turkey eggs also contain healthy fats, though they’re higher in cholesterol compared to chicken eggs—something to consider for people monitoring their cholesterol levels. Rarely used in mainstream cooking due to their limited availability, turkey eggs are prized for their rich, creamy flavor and are an excellent ingredient for baking or savory dishes. They offer a unique nutritional profile, delivering both energy and important micronutrients in every serving, making them a noteworthy addition to a balanced diet in moderation.
