402 Egg dishes mean extra nourishment You can cram a lot more nourish- ment into the week's menus if you make full use of your share of dried eggs. Thanks to the golden powder in the brown packet, you can have eggs for breakfast, serve Yorkshire pud- ding with the joint, have a real egg custard with the stewed fruit, and a sub- stantial cake for tea. Remember that eggs are a building food like meat and fish, and that dried eggs are new-laid eggs with only the shell and water removed. They are easy to get, easy to cook, and easy on the purse as well.
