The Daily Swank – Are you having an egg-cellent day?

I remember a time when my husband and I were antique shopping and the description next to this lovely vintage egg cup said "mini goblet" we laughed and laughed! Are you having en egg-cellent day?  I love today's Daily Swank, these egg cups are on a mission.

Do you use egg cups in your Easter celebrations?  I don't think I've had an egg served with one of these before, what is the best way to eat them while using an egg cup? Any recipes, tips?

  1. those cups are so cute! i love their little legs..
    when I have used an egg cup the egg has always been boiled soft or medium and you use a spoon to crack the shell around one end and then you scoop the insides out of the rest of the egg and eat it….
    never had a special recipe so I’m curious to see if anybody else does…

  2. These cups are charming! Yes, just tap around the top of the egg with a spoon (there are even special ones just for soft boiled eggs!) and serve with toast “soldiers” (toast points). Another recipe–bring asparagus spears to a boil and poach for 4 minutes. Meanwhile, place the soft boiled eggs in egg cups on four warmed plates and arrange asparagus spears beside each. Remove the tops from the eggs and place on teaspoons. Place a pile of grated parmesan next to each egg cup. Scatter sea salt and cracked black pepper over the spears and into the eggs. Finally, drizzle the spears with a little extra-virgin olive oil. Dip each spear into the egg, then roll in the grated parmesan. Yum…
