Interesting video! Knowing a little more about organic eggs has me tempted to try them over our usual free range and see if we can notice a difference.
@@BigSpud I'm neither British nor American and I usually buy the regular local market eggs. I generally avoid the fancy imported stuff as it is expensive.
Oh Gary I so agree with you! It’s all nonsense! yes in an ideal world yes free range is a must. Have you indeed read and seen Michel Roux (Dad) his cookery book on eggs. Just eggs that’s all on how to work and use, cook with them. All vey interesting. It’s a good inch thick book!
I have a couple of his books and his 'Sauces' is outstanding. I will look out for the egg one. PS. "Michel Roux Dad" gave me a big laugh, I enjoyed that!
Avian flu is going to play a big part in the availability of free range and organic eggs in the years to come. A number of farmers who had to move their free range flocks indoors during the avian flu outbreaks are not going back to free range because of the continuing risks posed by that disease. We kept a few chickens to keep us in eggs (i live in the country) but due to new regulations we decided to get rid of them. We didnt keep enough to justify the costs.
I didn't imply to be flippant about avian flu being 'over' more that the supply chain has settled down, certainly as far as supermarkets are concerned. All households in my part of Essex got a letter from the government saying any chickens had to be moved indoors indefinitely. We have a lot of foxes in my neighbourhood so it wouldn't be a good idea anyway.

Add a box to your next shopping basket. See what you think. I really think there's almost no taste difference.
this is quite informative!
Glad you enjoyed it! What type of eggs do you buy?

@@BigSpud I'm pleased that the supply chain has settled down buddy as for the first time in 20 years I'm having to buy eggs from a shop.
@@Phil_Tutty I'm sure it will settle down soon and you can RULE the ROOST again.
