For the love of eggs

 

The simple egg, free-range from cared for hens.

CRACK

…and the options are so many and varied:

OmeletteStrange, we talk about ‘the classic omelette’, but there is nothing classic about it, such is your choice of method, filling, and serving.

Butter, eggs, herbs in the pan, combined with a wooden spoon and left to form. Sliced, roast peppers (from the jar), layered on the open omelette with Stokes Chilli Jam. Fold and serve with a light salad of tomatoes and cucumber. Delicious.

Frittata or Spanish OmeletteA deep Spanish Omelette is combined and cooked in the pan and finished under the grill. Tomatoes, potatoes, onion, chorizo – whatever you want. Try finishing it with a soft egg below the grill and serve with either our Real Tomato, Bloody Mary, or Chilli KetchupMuy Bueno.

ShakshukaShakshuka is an Arabic dish from North Africa, combining a base of softly cooked onions, tomatoes and red peppers, spicy with harissa paste (and we add our Real Tomato Ketchup to lift the true tomato flavours). Using the back of a spoon, make three or four ‘wells’ into which you crack eggs to bake in the oven.

If you like it spicier still, add our Habanero HOT Sauce to the tomato mix.

Ladhidh!

 

 

The Classic Trio - PLUS One!

 

We step back 20 years to the first products we created in The Old Stables, here in Rendlesham.

The efforts that were invested in making each of these just as they should be – amazing – were second to none, making each of these sauces … second to none.

If we couldn’t make them amazing – we wouldn’t make them at all.

Just Joking

 

I feel boxed in. Think I should get some eggs-ercise, but it’s scrambling my brain, leaving me eggs-hausted!!!

 

Satirical novelist Samuel Butler said: “A hen is only an egg’s way of making another egg.”

 

What did the doctor tell the chicken with high cholesterol? “Lay off the eggs for a while.”

 

Egg-celent!!!
