This seems like the perfect opportunity to ask what may be a silly question, 
but one I hope someone here can answer. What size difference is there in for 
example a small egg versus a large egg. Is there a measurement of volume of 
contents that is considered a standard? If I could choose between using a 
small egg or large egg, are there instances where one would be better than 
the other?

I only had ever seen white eggs until I was 12 when I moved to my 
grandparent's farm where they had their own chickens and then encountered 
brown eggs. I couldn't ever tell a difference in the flavor, but hey, I was 
12 :-)   Do these eggs have different flavors that would make some more 
appropriate for some dishes than others, or do they taste the same regardless 
of the shell color?

And finally, to help keep the topic period, what is everyone's favorite or 
most successful period dish where eggs are a primary ingredient?
