About Aeggekage
Arla’s æggekage is presented as a classic Danish egg cake with a crisp base and soft centre. This version combines eggs, whipping cream and parsley, with bacon, cherry tomatoes and coarse rye bread.
Butter and cream enrich the mild egg mixture. Bacon provides savoury flavour, while parsley and tomatoes bring a fresh contrast; pickled beetroot and strong mustard are optional serving suggestions.
The egg cake keeps its open, unfolded shape, with bacon and tomato pieces across the surface. The dense rye bread accompanies the softer eggs and crisp bacon.
