PRODUCT INFO
Jidori eggs are a smooth, dark yolk, often called jidori on menus. The color comes from the hens’ vegetarian diet, which gives the eggs a rating of 13 on the Roche egg pigmentation scale. Jidori eggs are prized for their deep-orange yolks, so rich that they’re used raw as a dipping sauce.
