Why Freshlay Farms Golden Yolkers™ should be the only eggs in your basket

For award-winning eggs that look just as amazing as they taste, it’s got to be these gorgeous goldies

As a seasoned cook, when it comes to producing brilliant results, you know you only get out what you put into your recipes. So, for a versatile ingredient like the humble egg, which has a place in meals throughout the day, as well as special occasions, it’s especially important to buy the best you can.

After all, your smashed avocado on toast wouldn’t be complete without a seriously gooey golden yolk oozing over it. And how would you achieve that velvety smooth texture for your cake batter, without that ultimate pop of gold?

Happily, the people behind Freshlay Farms’ family of farms understand that not all eggs are created equal, which is why they’ve developed the Golden Yolker™. Giving you the same irresistible colour and delightfully rich flavour you’d expect from luxury brands, the Golden Yolker is an affordable option for everyday home cooks who want to create dishes that look as good as they taste.

Eggs are far more than just a breakfast ingredient, though. You could put together a quick, easy and satisfying niçoise for your lunch with just some tuna, salad ingredients of your choice and a couple of hard-boiled Golden Yolkers. If you’re planning an extra special dinner, why not slice them into a steaming, comforting bowl of ramen? They’ll also help you make an inviting, authentic carbonara sauce that any Italian nonna would be proud of.

Craving some heat? Spice things up with some jalapeño and coriander green chilaquiles, or for the ultimate forkful of indulgence, try eggs en cocotte with chorizo and gruyère. If you’ve yet to discover the pesto eggs TikTok trend, what better way to try it than with some Golden Yolkers? Simply gently warm some pesto in a pan, then crack a couple of eggs in and cover until they’re cooked, before combining with ricotta, avocado or anything else that takes your fancy. Or, for a satisfyingly salty treat, have a go at crumbling a little feta into a hot pan, then top with your Golden Yolkers, so the cheese forms an enticingly crispy base.

The best thing about such a versatile ingredient is the fact there’s always a new way to enjoy it. With so many egg-based options available, it can be hard to know where to start, but worry not – if you click below, you’ll discover a selection of delectable recipes to get going with.

Life on the farm

What’s the secret to creating the award-winning Freshlay Farms Golden Yolkers that everyone can enjoy? It all starts at friendly Freshlay farms across the country, where the hens are free to roam, forage and flourish outdoors. They also enjoy an all-natural vegetarian maize diet, so they get everything they need and nothing they don’t.

So, that’s why the hens produce such delicious eggs – all of which are British Lion-approved, so you can be sure they meet the very highest food safety and animal welfare standards too.
