How to Use Goose Eggs for Baking a Cake (4 Steps)
In the realm of baking, hen eggs are the usual currency. But with allergies, developments of green living and healthier options, different eggs are being used, such as emu, ostrich, duck and goose eggs. For the eco-friendly crowds, free range is preferred. When it comes to baking, volume matters. Goose eggs are 4 to 5 times larger than a hen's egg, so substituting goose eggs for hen's eggs in baking can be a bit tricky.
