I have three egg yolks...what should I do with them?

Question

I baked a cake and the recipe asked for three egg whites. I don't know what to do with the egg yolks, all I can come up with is maybe scrambled eggs but I've never tasted it before with just egg yolks. Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

Lemon pudding--even the type from the box calls for only egg yolks.    

Add a whole egg to your yolks and a splash of milk and make scrambled eggs.

Homemade noodles.     Beat the egg yolks,dash of salt,  add flour and a small splash of milk.     the mixture should be dry.    roll out on a floured surface and let the noodles dry.     once dry, drop into a pot of boiling broth (chicken, beef or vegetable) and cook till tender.      You could add chicken to the mixture and/or veggies.  

French toast.     Egg yolks, splash of milk, some cinnamon.    Dip bread into mixture and fry on a greased griddle.    

Answer 2

Scrambled eggs won't taste very good with just yolks. Maybe make some pasta or a custard. Those things generally just call for the yolk of the egg.  

Answer 3

Eggs make a nice thickener for Hollandaise sauce. Or mixed with ricotta in a lasagna. How about tiramisu? Mayonnaise? Lemon curd? Oh, wait - you just baked a cake.

How about freezing them?

Answer 4

EGG YOLK PASTRY

5 c. flour, sifted

4 tsp. sugar

1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. baking powder

1 1/2 c. Crisco

2 egg yolks

Cold water

Combine dry ingredients. Cut in shortening. Place egg yolks in a measuring cup and stir with a fork until smooth. Blend in enough cold water to make scant cupful. Sprinkle gradually over dry ingredients. Toss with fork to make a soft dough. Roll out as usual. Make pastry for three 9-inch two-crust pies, or 7 one-crust 8-inch pies. Roll in balls and freeze for a later use.

or

EGG YOLK NOODLES

2 egg yolks

1/8 tsp. baking powder

2 tbsp. cream

1 tsp. Crisco oil

Salt

Flour, sparingly

Beat eggs. Add baking powder, cream, oil and salt. Mix well. Add approximately 1/2 heaping cup flour or until it is no longer sticky. Roll out on a floured surface. Cut. These do not stick together. They freeze well.

hope this helped and good luck :)
