Tips

  • Use cold ingredients for easier handling.
  • Lightly coat eggs in flour before wrapping with sausage to help the sausage stick.
  • For a firm yolk, boil eggs longer than 6 minutes.
  • Scotch eggs can be prepared one day in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
