8 Ways to Use Your Extra Eggs ~ Simple Homestead Pantry Recipes 

I think Jessica is truly the proverbially Provers 31 woman! What a blessing she is!

I have 6 dozen eggs in my freeze dryer right now. I have 14 hens right now but my neighbor had 6 dozen that had accumulated at this house last week and they don’t have a freeze dryer. He offered me the eggs and I agreed to take them if he would let me share back 50% of them so that they will have some freeze dried eggs on their shelf. It’s a win/win for both of us!

What a timely video! I'm at the "Hungry? Eat some eggs." I gotta step-up my game. Ooh! I can change it to, "Hungry? Eat some cake." Great idea.

I couldn't understand why my chickens just weren't laying very much considering it's the time of year there is supposed to be an abundance. I let out my hens a bit late this morning and one took off around the house. I followed her and found a treasure! 31 eggs they've been hiding from me under the porch! And now this video is very useful!!

I just so enjoy your family. Your saving ..not wasting. Gardening. Cooking and canning. Christian values. And I see cooperation and love in your family. Obedient kids. Limited squabbling. Patient loving parents.

One of my favorite ways to preserve eggs is quiche. They freeze beautifully and you can make them in any size pan, with or without a crust. Grease the pan well or line it with parchment paper and pop it out after it's frozen so all of your pans aren't stuck in the freezer. You can also fully cook, partially or no cooking and just freeze it. Put it back in the original pan to thaw and cook or heat accordingly. Thanks for sharing your ideas!

I never thought about God giving rest to the animal and plant world and not just for humans. Thanks for sharing. I love how you always glorify God in your videos!

You can easily clean the lime scale from the jars by adding 1/2 cup vinegar to the jar. Swirl it over the crusted line, then fill the jar with boiling water and let it sit for 30 minutes. It’ll come off easily. Hope you try it. ❤😊

Whwn we had ducks I always used the eggs for baking. They were "richer" than our chicken eggs and were perfect for baking.

Couldn't believe how many eggs you all eat in just the winter. So I decided to do the math 9 weeks x 80 dozen = 106 eggs a week, which is 11 eggs per person. That's a lot of eggs, thank goodness you keep your own chicken. I Love watching your channel. You have gorgeous children. Mine are now 26yrs, 27yrs & 29yrs old. Time goes by too fast and if I could go back 30yrs I would do so in a heartbeat. My 3 boys are wonderful, thoughtful men and my eldest is becoming a daddy in October and I can't wait ❤♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Game changer for lemon loaf, zest your lemon and mix for minutes into your sugar with your fingers before adding to your mixture. Absolute game changer

Its so nice when you show your husband interacting with the children! It looks like the children had fun helping make the pasta!

This video could not have come at a better time for us! We are in the same boat. Blessings!

I think this year will be the first year that I am seriously thinking about trying to water glass some eggs

Good morning 🙏😊 Love your videos and how you “teach” your children by including them in every thing you do. Have a blessed week 🙏

Jessica A time saver, you can use the potato masher(with the squares) to mash the eggs for egg salad!

Leftover night typically becomes Breakfast Casserole night here too. I love topping mine with salsa. I ordered a gallon pickle jar with my grocery order but, the jar was plastic and not glass. A little disappointed but, serves me right for not walking in and doing my own shopping. Hopefully it doesn't become the industry norm. Glass jars of any variety are proving to be useful and valuable resources. Thanks for another great video!

Love and family !Blessings to y’all

I can not wait to see your new basement cellar and food storage pantry. It will be great to see how you organize it and what you do with the extra space it creates upstairs.

I do my freeze drying of eggs in the spring, and early summer, when I can get them readily from local people.

Ladies watch out! Levi is quite the charmer! Love your family and love you! You are truly a blessing to all of us! 😊

Happy Sunday from OKC 💕 Happy Birthday to Levi!🎉🎉

Thanks for all the effort you put into this video! Steaming eggs, even day old, for 20 minutes was a game changer for me. Just drop in ice water to cool and peel away!

Dreaming of the day when I'll be able bto have chickens and preserve my own eggs. 😍🐣🍳

Levi's birthday cake was gorgeous!

Thank You For The Video! Have a Great Week!

The puff/German pancake is excellent with either apple pieces or bacon added to the batter. In Sweden we typically make it with bacon and eat it with lingonberry jam (lingonberries are close to cranberries in taste, so quite tart).

When my kids were little i used to make dutch puff with the same ingredients you used but also poured melted butter into the pan. We would even eat it for supper. We made a lot of quiche when we had extra eggs too. Thanks for sharing Jessica.

What is the time and temp for baking the 1st recipe you did? I’m going to try this as is in the video but also a savory version by omitting vanilla and adding ham and spinach before baking… we’ll see how it goes! Thanks for all the ideas!!

Jessica, you look amazing! I love that you are a real home steader and I trust your judgment when it comes to food preservation.

I always look forward to Sundays with your family! Even though I am a single, older lady I find it so interesting to see how you make this work for your large family! Teaching your children everyday skills is so very important. You give me ideas with expanding my cooking skills.

That sweet boy baby and his feeding himself. Love it

Thank you for sharing all the wonderful egg recipes! We have been accumulating and giving away quite a few and want to make better use of them.

Good Morning Beautiful! I absolutely love your videos!! And one tip, is to invest in an egg slicer!!! It saves so much time and if you have egg salad once a week in the Summers you'll definitely notice the difference!! ❤❤ I love my egg slicer! All my love!!

I'm with your kids about not liking the taste of duck (or goose) eggs. Grew up on subsistence type farm and eggs were one of the ways we made some money. In the winter especially when chicken egg production was low there were many times the only eggs left for us were duck, goose or guinea. Even though very small, guinea eggs were much more popular. Since us kids made our own breakfasts and lunches from a young age we learned many easy meals. One popular way to use those nasty eggs was to scramble up a bunch of those eggs tossing in a small amount of dried parsley and thyme as well as a little milk or water(to counter the rubbery texture of the eggs if cooked at too high temp. We kids weren't chef Ramsey so we frequently missed getting the right temp). We would put them on thick slices of homemade buttered toast and then slice surplus cheese and put in oven under the oven broiler until bubbly. The spices helped mask that high protein taste Us kids would barter meals; if I make you breakfast you will do X for me. This was one of my favorites because it was one of the first ones I knew how to mass produce.

Your grain mill seems so much better, love that for you. Thank you for the video.

Aww Happy Birthday !! Love watching you all ,have an amazing week

Prayers for speedy healing and recovery. Nature and all it's glory bees just doing what came naturally. Thank you Jessica for taking the time for us doing this scary situation you had endured. Till next time have a wonderful week.🙏😎

Good morning my dear! I love the lemon extract idea, you always have great ideas and recipes!! Happy Birthday Levi!! Good choice on the birthday cake sweetie!

Great information and recipes I want to try. I never knew you could just put lemons in the freezer for later. THANK YOU!

God bless you and your family.

Your dishes always look so delicious, I'm sure converting to non-dairy has been a matter of trial and error but you make it look easy. Please do some more videos on making coconut yogurt, I'm trying to learn how to make it in a nonelectric maker and I am totally clueless! Like you I hate to waste ingredients and a food fail is so disappointing. Thank you for sharing your life and family with us! And Happy 7th Birthday to Levi 🎂

So theraputic to watch you...all is right with the world! 😊

Has David tried making French Macarons? Extra bonus is they are made with almond flour ! They use egg whites and then I will use extra yolks in baked custard.

You are absolutely amazing. I really love your knowledge. Bless.

Thank you again for educating us. You and the children start off my week.

You're so inspirational ❤️ love and blessings to you and your beautiful family ❤😊

Peeling eggs, tap the "fat" end with the back of a spoon. When the sound changes (you will hear a pop) you have broken the air membrane inside. They peel like a dream after that and it doesn't matter if they are fresh or not!

I use a pastry knife to make egg salad. It makes chopping the eggs up a breeze and then I use it to blend the ingredients.

You are my favorite homeschooling/ homesteading channel! I appreciate you sharing your wisdom. Love your family ❤

Levi is such a fan of the camera. 😂 Maybe a future RU-vid content creator! I'd watch...he just makes me laugh. Happy birthday, Levi! I had no idea you can freeze whole lemons. And the tip to zest them while still partially frozen is fantastic! Thank you! Grace is looking so grown-up. It'll be a help to you that she can now water glass the eggs. Can you water glass duck eggs too?

HI! It's so cool to see that you're going all Scandinavian in your baking equipment today, with the Norwegian invented 'Hackit' and the Danish whisk. Thank you for many yammie receipes. Have a good week! Love from Norway, very close to where the 'Hackit'-inventor lives :-)

Happiest Birthday Blessings to Levi!🎉 Miss Jessica, thank you for another useful video. You have lovely ideas for using eggs. I agree... duck eggs are wonderful for baking. Have a glorious week!

Thanks for another great video. Levi's cake was beautiful! And he has a great smile!! We also have family members with restricted diets, and that zucchini bread looks like one I can work with to make something special for one of my granddaughters. Thanks.

Thank u so much for this. I work full time and dont always have the brain power left at the end of the day to figure out what to do with all my eggs! I was just thinking yesterday, am i going wster glass all of these or look up a bunch of recipes?? I am so appreciative of your food ideas and watching you love your family through food and gardening. Thank you for all you do!

Love your videos. Thank you. Blessings

We just made a big batch of pasta noodles recently with a noodle maker just like that😊, I spread my noodles out over a sheet and dry them for storage and using later, I usually make a 5 gallon bucket full, and started recently making sour dough noodles.

Happy birthday to Levi!

The waffles and zucchini bread look sooo good. I don’t need to follow a specific diet, but I’d love to have that breakfast 😊

Thank you Jessica! Love your channel and your beautiful family. Have a blessed week.

Beautiful Jessica! I’m intrigued by water glassing, I’ve watched a few people do it. I don’t have an abundance of eggs, yet. Chickens will be delivered next month. Thank you for another great Vlog. 🌺

I use all use your methods of preserving eggs, plus we like them pickled too. I use them in all the dishes I would normally use boiled eggs for.

Good morning 😃

Thanks again for all the fun. I sure enjoy your videos.

Look how your beautiful babies are growing. They always try to help you. It's so precious. Looks like they had fun making the pasta. So sweet

Always a joy spending time with you. Thank you 🌷🇨🇦

Looks so yummy! Can’t wait to have my own chickens one day :) you’re so inspiring Jessica!

Loved this video Jessica. Ty for sharing.

Great content! I love how your little guys hang on to the table watching intently.💙💙

Thank you for another beautiful video--have a most Blessed day!

Love your videos Jessica. I’m in an Australian city but try to homestead where I can.

Hi Jessica, love and prayers to your family. Wishing you a good day and week.

❤ great video! I always learn so much.

Great video Jessica!

I really enjoy all your videos. You are so informative and give so many different ways to do your recipes that others probably wouldn't think of. Your precious children are all so interested in helping they are the icing on the cake

Great video, the breakfast foods look delicious. ❤

I have an abundance of organic hash brown bags currently in my azure standard cart thanks to your breakfast casserole inspiration in previous videos! You continue to inspire my family many ways from raising meal worms to cloth diapering! Love your family! Have a blessed week and happy spring! Can’t wait to see you guys move things outdoors again soon with your grill set up and tables!

Thank you great video I’m going to make the gaps recipe zucchini an carrot cake love the leftover potato recipes ❤

I love your videos, I learn so much. Thank you

Wonderful ways of using eggs; thanks for sharing! Fantastic family & teaching vlog! Blessings to all 🤗💜🇨🇦

As always, another great video Jessica. I am going to try that pound cake recipe soon,looks delicious 😋.

I freeze and flower my bunt pan the same way. Works every time. Love love love lemon pound cake. The potato waffles looked great. I will be trying that.

Great video!

I recently learned a great way to hard boil fresh eggs. Bring water to boil and then add eggs. Boil for 6 minutes, then turn heat off and put lid on for 6 more minutes. Plunge eggs in cold water. Fresh eggs peel soooo easy like this. You don’t have to add anything to the water. Love watching your videos! Thank you!

Great tips and recipes for your eggs thank you for sharing.

So informative thank you. You are always a pleasure to listen to. I can see that your a born teacher , the children are so lucky to have you as their mum and do homeschooling.😊

Jessica as always I enjoyed your video and I loved your parting words on being sustainable. I planted Horehound earlier this week to make our own homemade throat lozenges for flu and cold season and plan to make enough to give neighbors and friends as well. I'm so excited for gardening season. I watched a you tube video yesterday about planting tomatoes from seed outside after the last frost 2-3 weeks that I am interested in trying since everything I did with my grow kit died ( it was in a awkward space in my husbands room that I couldn't get to easily enough or watch as good as I should theres always next year in the meantime one of my friends is going to pick up starters for me Mothers Day weekend at a nursery she goes to that has them four for dollar that weekend such a blessing to have a frugal friend who scouts out those sales and wants to help me garden this year since my husband is gravely ill and I may not have as much time outside as I usually do again a blessing to have a Christian sister offering to help.

Great info! I have a Freeze Dryer. I freeze dry my eggs too. I have succesfully rehydrated them for scrambled eggs and french toast.

What a blessing from the Lord to have a marvellous amount of eggs for your family Jessica. Some wonderful ideas you shared too. Blessings from 🇬🇧

I water glass and freeze dry some of our extra eggs. I have a few gallons of pickled eggs in our extra fridge that I've been putting in potato salad lately. Yum! We had breakfast casserole for dinner a few days ago. This time, I used home canned chili beans, sausage patties, hashbrowns, and topped with cheese.
