What better ingredient for this season of fresh beginnings?

Cultures and religions around the world have some sort of rebirth ritual that involves eggs. Hosts and hostesses, too, can celebrate spring with an egg-centered meal—past Passover, Nowruz and Easter, continuing through Mother’s Day, Derby, and graduation.

Chickens oblige in the Commonwealth. Farmers’ market tables that might have displayed eggs by the dozen or two each week in the winter begin to stack their dozens three and four high. Use the seasonal windfall to make easy egg dishes, like those featured here. The flan may look fancy, but it, like the others, is a cinch. The caramel melts when the custard sits on top of it, so there’s no anxiety to flipping it out of its pan.
