Duck Eggs

The Baker's Secret

Ask any baker. The extra lecithin in a duck yolk holds an emulsion that a hen egg gives up on, and a sponge made with these rises visibly higher.

favorite Why It Is Worth It

The extra lecithin in the yolk makes batters emulsify better and sponges rise higher. Also far higher in B12 and choline.

Duck Egg Sponge

schedule 50 min group One 8-inch cake

Ingredients

  • 3 duck eggs, at room temperature
  • 150 g caster sugar
  • 150 g flour
  • 150 g butter, softened
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Method

  1. 1 Beat butter and sugar until pale and light - a full four minutes, not one.
  2. 2 Add the duck eggs one at a time, beating well between each.
  3. 3 Fold in flour and baking powder gently; do not beat once the flour is in.
  4. 4 Bake at 180 C for 30 to 35 minutes.
  5. 5 The extra lecithin in duck yolk holds the emulsion better, so this rises noticeably higher than the same recipe with hen eggs.
