COOK’S NOTES: We advise using caution when consuming raw egg products; children or other individuals with compromised immune systems should take care due to the slight risk of salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend using only fresh, properly refrigerated, clean grade A or AA eggs with intact shells.
