Mustard eggs are one of my absolute favorite dishes and always bring back wonderful childhood memories. Even as a child, I was thrilled when my mother prepared this classic recipe. Originally a popular East German dish, it has long since found its place throughout Germany.
I used to put so much sauce on my plate that the eggs were barely visible - hence the name "lost eggs". Every family certainly has its own version of this classic, and today I would like to introduce you to my personal favorite.
Mustard eggs are not only quick and easy to prepare, but also perfect for an uncomplicated lunch or dinner. In this post, I'll show you step by step how to make this delicious dish yourself - including a few tips to make it even better.

Quickly stir the flour with a whisk until a smooth mass forms.
