Real custard, or replace one whole egg with 2 yolks in a bread and butter pudding.

You could make uovo sbattuto - to your 2 egg yolks add A LOT of sugar (about 4 tablespoons if I remember rightly - keep adding it gradually until it won't take any more) and beat until it goes pale and thick.

Yes I know it sounds like a recipe for a heart attack but this is what all good Italian children used to have spread on buttered toast and, believe me, it is scrumola. Just try it once. You never have to do it again (although you will want to...)!

Blimey, I've just gone back in time some thirty-odd years. If I made that now, what could I do with the whites...?:D

if the yolks havent broken you can do what my nan did - cover them with water and keep them in the fridge. I cover mine with cling film too! I can then add them (minus the water) to pastry (makes it extra rich) or add another yolk when frying eggs, or scramble them with milk. they definately dont go to waste!

meant to say that covering them with water stops that awful skin forming on them! they keep two or three days in the fridge then. it may be longer but I havent kept them longer than that so cannot say.

I have a receipe where I need 3 egg whites but don't want to waste the yolks - any ideas what I can use them for as I don't want to throw them away?
