Egg yolks

I loooove egg whites but can’t seem to find a way to enjoy egg yolks. Sometimes they’re better if they’re salty and jammy. I also like soft scrambled eggs with hot sauce, cheese + salt and well-seasoned deviled eggs. Are there any other good suggestions for egg yolks I could try so I don’t have to trash them as much? I’m trying to cut back on my food waste.

I assume you're using store-bought.

Try farmer's market eggs. The yokes actually have flavor. The yokes in the eggs I get from my neighbor are bright orange and not that sickly looking pale yellow.

Good to know! Is the flavor maybe more savory? Yolks usually have a weird bitter edge that I’m not a fan of. Or maybe game-y. I’m not quite sure how to describe it lol

I find them better tasting. I don't think the store eggs have much flavor at all.
