It's World Egg Day! On this day every year, the International Egg Commission tries to raise awareness about the benefits of eggs. Although 2010's been a rough year for ovoid food safety, eggs remain a worldwide staple because they're healthy, affordable, easy to prepare, and, of course, delicious. Eggs are versatile, too, so don't just relegate them to bacon and omelets — branch out!

Today is World Egg Day, and I'll be celebrating by eating eggs — one of my favorite foods ever — all day long. As I mentioned before, there are countless ways to eat them, but tonight I want to serve eggs as an appetizer in one of my beloved dishes: deviled eggs. The basic recipe is incredibly simple, yet there are so many ways to display a sophisticated take on them. Are you ready to see how? Then let's get cracking!
Happy Friday, and happy World Egg Day! This special occasion only comes around once a year, so I wanted to take the time to relish eggs and their multifaceted splendor. The incredible edible can be shirred, coddled, emulsified, or poached; used raw or cooked all the way through; eaten for breakfast or dinner; and presented in a salty or sweet manner.
From dessert soufflés to savory Scotch eggs, I've yet to meet an egg dish I don't like. But if I had to pick a favorite egg specialty, I think it would have to be smoked salmon eggs benedict, which comes with both poached eggs as well as a luscious, egg-laden hollandaise sauce, so I get a double dose of my favorite ingredient. What's your preferred egg dish?

Did you know that today is World Egg Day? Eggs are one of the world's most versatile ingredients, as they play a key role in everything from frittatas to soufflés. They're also delicious when eaten on their own, and I love them in every preparation — over-medium, poached, and soft-boiled. One of my favorite dishes, however, has to be scrambled eggs. When overcooked, they can taste terrible — burnt, rubbery, dense, and nauseatingly rich. When prepared perfectly, though, they're a piece of heaven, creamy and fluffy, light and rich, all at the same time. How's one to ensure properly scrambled eggs every time?
