What to cook with egg
Eggs are the ultimate fridge rescue: cheap, fast, and happy to turn yesterday's rice, a lone tomato or the end of a cheese block into a real meal. If you have eggs, you are rarely more than ten minutes from eating.

Egg cooking tips

- Salt scrambled eggs at the end, not the start, to keep them tender.
- Old eggs are perfect for hard-boiling — they peel the easiest.
