Mega Egg Carbonara

Tripping around the Fox Studio markets a few weeks ago we went to buy some eggs. Sitting next to the Usual Size Eggs was the Mother of All Eggs. Well, maybe not the mother, as an emu egg would be bigger. But it was still a Big Egg. A Big Goose Egg.


Note: I do not have lady hands. I have large man hands so please remember this when judging the size of the egg.

We bought it, having been convinced by the stall lady that they were just starting and we would be back for more, guaranteed. She recommended cooking it in place of four usual eggs, and said it was quite rich and made a great carbonara sauce. So the next night, that's what we made.



No photos of the actual pasta, but it was heavenly. Slight scary having to virtually saw open the goose egg, and separating the yolk and white was equally weird. But once done, it made a delicious, rich and creamy sauce over homemade pasta with smoky bacon. We yummed it up. With Mega Appetites.
