That’s what I was thinking! If I had duck eggs, I could probably be bothered to actually _make_ mayo instead of just picking up a jar of it at the store.

> I ordered duck eggs from our local co-op and I’m picking them up tomorrow. I’ve never cooked duck eggs before, but I love chicken eggs. I especially like them poached or sunny-side up. How different are duck eggs from chicken eggs? Can I cook them the same way I cook chicken eggs? Is the flavor different?
