AaE- Quail and Duck Egg Recipes

Extension does not have specific recipe ideas. In spite of what some internet sites say, quail eggs, as with chicken eggs should be thoroughly cooked before eating.  A quick google search brought up Pinterest.  Also, Jamie Oliver at:  http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/eggs-recipes/scotch-quail-eggs/#SO7ypEbkUddVjUTQ.97

Duck eggs-are more commonly consumed in Europe. Here is a bit on egg safety.

Cooking with duck eggs- A duck egg is heavier and larger than a hen’s egg and therefore needs more cooking time. Duck eggs are also more suitable for certain recipes than other egg types because they have a richer taste and a higher fat content in the yolk. And while duck eggs can work well in baked products where they are thoroughly cooked, they may have a "rubbery" texture when hard boiled, scrambled or thoroughly fried. But because duck eggs must be fully cooked so that both the yolk and white are solid (to avoid possible Salmonella infection), it is essential only to use them in dishes that can be thoroughly cooked. And while the temptation is great, don’t taste (or let your children taste) raw baking mixes or lick spoons!

You should NOT assume that lightly poached or lightly cooked duck eggs are safe to eat. Duck eggs are also NOT suitable as ingredients for lightly cooked recipes like tiramisu, icing, homemade mayonnaise or hollandaise sauce. What also sets duck eggs apart is that their shells are harder than those of hen’s eggs. Any dirt, "tint" or staining on the shell could well get into the cooking with the egg, so it’s essential that the finished dish is fully cooked through. And it's just as important to remember that your hands should be thoroughly washed with warm water and soap and dried completely before you touch any other food or utensils.
