Overview

Raising backyard chickens has become a popular hobby and there are numerous guides to get you started. But there's little available to help you figure out what to do with the proliferation of eggs once your hens start laying. Uncle Eggbert's Egg Book is an ecclectic collection of recipes and other fun ways to enjoy the bounty from your backyard chickens. This fun and quirky book isn't your typical cookbook: Besides the 57 easy-to-follow recipes and cooking tips, you'll find eggnocentic wit, wisdom, trivia and a marvelous collection of chicken and egg-related found photographs and illustrations. A new section titled Henrietta's Henhouse Hints offers fun and informative anecdotes about Eggbert and Henrietta's experiences caring for their backyard flock. Even if you don't raise chickens, Uncle Eggbert's Egg Book is still an enjoyable read. Makes a great gift.
