Quail egg

Partridge is just another old name for quails

Quails -- partridges -- are medium sized creatures of a large category of birds. From the tiny quail to the long-tailed, large-bodied pheasants, all with short, curved bills, small heads, rounded bodies and short legs they are a target for pleasure hunters but also pets for many or providers of health quality food of a large scale industry, continually developing.

Few useful tips about storing, cooking and eating the quail eggs in the quail recipes.

They are not secrets but less known tricks

One concern when buying fresh food is the real freshness of it -- food poisoning is never an option one would gladly choose. Quail eggs are very easy to check -- just place them into a bowl with water -- the eggs stay on the bottom when they are very fresh.
Quail eggs can be stored in a normal fridge -- two, three weeks would present no risk to the consumer.

If there is no functioning fridge around -- place the eggs into lime water -- lime as in the white natural substance that has been used for painting the walls in the past. If there is no lime available -- place the eggs into a watery clay in a container -- these are old storing tricks that work today too, even for regular chicken eggs. The benefits of raw quail eggs are known -- the egg yolk keeps more of it nutrients when it is used raw. However, quail eggs are keeping their health qualities even when cooked -- boiled or fried.

The number of quail eggs that a person can eat is not limited. Quail eggs differ from the chicken egg in that they have no bad cholesterol at all, therefore they can be eaten by people of any age; they are highly rec commanded for children and senior persons for the content of vitamins and calcium that is easy to process by the human body.

The pic illustrates the difference between the appearance of quail eggs from a regular chicken egg - both fresh.

In case of being used as a natural remedy treatment for the various ailments that they can help against -- a dose of one-two eggs should be consumed -- daily, or two , three times per week in an amount combined.

The power of the quail eggshells in a quail recipe -- eggs health for keeps!

use the healing properties of the quail eggshells

This is the reason why quail eggs are best be bought fresh -- so that one can use the eggshells for their healing properties. The quail recipes that I favor have fresh quail eggs as an ingredient.
Whenever I boil quail eggs -- I place them into a jar with vinegar-- and leave them for ten minutes. The vinegar will dissolve a greater part of the shells and store the calcium into itself. I am using apple cider vinegar as it has ab added health quality.
The apple cider vinegar is strained after the process and I store it in a bottle in a dark place. This is one little known quail recipe.
This vinegar is an ingredient for salad dressings that I prepare from time to time, keep in dressing containers and use daily over my vegetables- cooked, baked, steamed or broiled.

• Prep Time: the quails are in the fridge for a night over
 
• Total Time: cooking time 30 minutes
•  Print

Ingredients

• 2 quails per person
• garlic -one clove
• 200ml olive oil
• dark soy sauce 2 tbsp
• balsamic vinegar 2 tbsp
• salt
• cayenne/black pepper to taste
• tabasco sauce
• 1 glass of red dry wine
• 1 tsp honey

Instructions

1. <p style="text-align:justify">This quail recipe suggests grilling the quails. There is however the option of being baked in a foil, or in a halogen oven or even broiled in a pressure cooker -- the meat will be tasty and tender, no matter the choice of preparing it.
2. It is important though to keep the birds in the marinade for at least four hours -- the best option is for overnight. According to all quail recipes, the quail meat needs some tenderizing before cooked.
3. Use a kitchen shear and cut the quails into two halves
4. Clean and wash inside
5. Dry with towel
6. Crush garlic
7. Place all the ingredients in a bowl. Multiply every qty by the number of further two birds per person invited
8. Place the quails into the bowl. Brush and stir the birds until all covered with the marinade
9. Cover bowl. Leave it in the fridge over night or at least for four hours before cooking
10. Preheat oven to 190 degree C
11. Place quails on to the racks or in a tray
12. Brush quails over with the marinade that is left in the bowl, several times during cooking
13. Grill/bake birds until brown and crispy -- it should happen in 30 minutes -- check after 20 minutes in case your oven is strong
14. I am serving quails with vegetables, baked in the oven but it is a free choice of what the side dish should be. Rice, noodles, steamed vegetables -- they all complement nicely the quails.
15. Enjoy the meal and be happy! Share the quail recipe with friends.
