Chef Sebastien Archambault of the Back Room at One 57 at New York’s Park Hyatt Hotel, USA explains the importance of seeking out farm fresh.

“The kind of egg you use is very important. A yolk should always be bright orange, not yellow – yellow means there’s no keratin and that the hen wasn’t eating what it was supposed to. And because it matters what the chickens has been eating, I also think you should always buy your eggs from a farmer’s market. For eggs to have true flavour and real nutritional value, chickens need to be free to roam and eat grass, insects, and flowers – yes, believe it or not, the richness and flavour of the yolk when chickens can eat flowers is amazing”
