Scotts of Glen Mona - Quail Eggs

A connoisseur’s favourite quail is a succulent, low-fat game bird. Although small, the eggs are packed with vitamins and minerals and have a higher proportion of yolk to white compared to a hen’s egg.

They make wonderful bite size scotch eggs and are tasty treats added to tartlets, a fish pie, salads or used as a pizza topping. They can be poached in minestrone soup, are great with celery salt as an appetizer and work well when used in tapas and on canapes. Alternatively, just boil a couple for 30 seconds and have for breakfast and serve with bacon and sausage.

The delicate flavoured meat and delicious eggs produced by Scotts has led them to supplying some of the best restaurants, caterers and quality butchers on the Island.

To find out more or to try some for yourself, you can visit the MostlyManx shop in Douglas where the quail eggs are now available to purchase.
