Goose eggs - just the treat for now

Around the country producers are looking ahead to the ‘season of the goose’ starting with the feast of Michaelmas, generally on September 29, and leading up to Christmas. There was another increase in consumers trying goose for the first time last year – and from the feedback they’ll be choosing goose again.

Meanwhile, spring is the season for goose eggs. They do make the most wonderful golden pancakes, delicious omelettes, Yorkshire pudding and mouth-watering cakes. So why not seek out some goose eggs and treat yourself?

Looking for a tasty starter or snack. Try a fried goose egg with crumbled black pudding and onions – as served by the Bakers Arms, at Droxford, Hampshire. Sunny side up, as here, or easy over!
