I picked up 15 quail eggs at the local cheap grocery. I figured i'd find something to do with them.

So what do I do with quail eggs?

I have never made them but see them at the store and at restaurants. They are used mostly as a cute garnish. Like a tiny fried egg on a soup, hard boiled or poached on a salad. Also had one soft boiled in its tiny shell, so cute. Oh, hard boiled halved, topped with caviar. I also saw pickled ones at the store with different flavors, curry, and saffron come to mind.

I made several dozen mini scotch eggs with quail eggs for a party two years ago. They were a big hit.

I see them all the time in the Asian markets, and I have seen them in many braised recipes, in which they are added toward the end, after boiling in water and peeling. One time I made some tea eggs, with duck, chicken, and quail eggs, and all were good, but the duck eggs were best

Toss two of them, raw, on hot udon noodles with minced green onion and grated ginger. Instant Japanese meal.

My favorite Spanish Tapa was iberico ham on a crostini topped with a poached quail egg. I still dream of this after our trip to Spain.
