Description/Taste
Larger in size than chicken eggs, the whites of duck eggs tend to be a bit more thick and opaque, and the yolks a striking yellow. As the bird is naturally wilder, duck eggs typically have a stronger flavor compared to that of a chicken egg.
Seasons/Availability
Ducks lay eggs year-round with brief gaps in Late Winter/Spring during molting season.
Applications
If you have never tried duck eggs, experiment with them using many traditional egg applications, such as fried, poached and baking. Of course, you can hard-boil and pickle them too!

The eggs are put into a jar and stored in a cool place for days whereupon they become fermented.
