I have obtained a goose egg.

What the hell do I do with it?! The thing is huge, I could make an omlette with just the one egg! Has anyone eaten one before and if so, how did you prepare it, how long does it take to boil and what does it taste like? Thanks! :D

Its a stronger flavour if I remember, you have to fry it, theres nothing more comical than a giant fried egg.

Just googled goose egg. They're huge. :eek:

Do they taste pretty much the same as chicken eggs? Any idea what they're like nutritionally compared to chicken eggs?

Just ate the thing, couldn't finish it, too big!! It tasted just like a chickens egg but it smelled stronger. I boiled it for 11 minutes, the outer part of the yolk was kinda hard but the inside was lovely and runny. I'll post pictures later, twas a serious adventure!
