quail eggs
Tiny spotted ovoids
Quail eggs are the small, speckled eggs of quail, typically about one-third the size of chicken eggs.
They have cream-colored shells with brown spots and are considered a delicacy in many cuisines.
Often served hard-boiled as appetizers or in salads, they're prized for their rich, slightly gamey flavor: The ramen was topped with halved quail eggs.
