Our Fresh Goose eggs come from our Embden Goose.

A typical goose egg weighing about 144 g, or 5
oz., contains 266 calories. It provides almost 20 g of protein and 20 g of fat,
5 g of which is saturated. A goose egg contains about 2 g of carbohydrates. A
chicken egg, by comparison, contains just 72 calories, 6 g of protein, 4.75 g
of fat and .36 g of carbs and weighs just 50 g, or 2 oz.
A goose egg provides 9 percent of the U.S.
Department of Agriculture recommended daily allowance of calcium, 19 percent of
vitamin A and 29 percent of iron. It offers 53.1 mg of selenium – about three
and a half times the amount found in a chicken egg. A goose egg is also a good
source of the carotenoid, a type of antioxidant, lutein which can help with eye
and skin health explains the Lutein Information Bureau.
A goose egg provides 379 mg of choline, a nutrient
grouped with the B vitamins. The RDA for choline is 425 mg for most adult
females and 550 mg for most adult males. Choline plays an important role in the
development of cells and cellular communication. A lack of choline can affect
liver disease, hardening of the arteries and neurological functioning.
A goose egg may be cooked like chicken eggs.
Hard-boiling, poaching or scrambling will feature the naturally “eggy” taste of
the goose egg. Given their larger size, only one is needed to make a
generously-sized omelet.
