Loved for their ability to make any baked good more moist and rich, duck eggs are found in specialty grocery stores and farmers' markets alike. They are often larger than chicken eggs. And as a result, duck eggs will have a different ratio of yolk to white. This means they also have a higher fat content than chicken eggs, which makes custard creamier and silkier. Another bonus, depending on the recipe, is that duck eggs produce a brighter yellow color.
Cups of applesauce frequently made their way into lunchboxes and topped off lunch trays, but we don't have to abandon them in the past once we get older. Even if the nostalgic ingredient no longer functions as a midday snack, it still serves a deliciously important role. A cup of most sweetened and unsweetened applesauce contains about 1/7 the amount of calories that a cup of sugar has, making it a more nutritious way to enjoy your favorite toothsome treats.
