Welcome back, Gunthar! Was, Re: SC - what to do with extra egg yolks

[Philip & Susan Troy]

Hello there, Gunthar! Welcome back!

We've all been extremely good in your absence, haven't we, folks? Can we
stay up late and watch drivel on television? Please?

Ooh! Ooh! You reminded me! The Proper Newe Boke of Cookery has a recipe
mentioned frequently in several earlier texts, menus and such, but the
only actual recipe I've seen for Eggs in Moonshine involves poached egg
yolks (whole) served in a rosewater and sugar syrup. It is, as I say,
probably earlier than the 16th-century English source, but by default it
seems a little off-theme for the rest of the yolky feast.
