Mudhorn egg

Mudhorn eggs were large, fur-covered eggs laid by the non-sentient mudhorn species. The Jawas loved to eat the yolk of such eggs.
==Description==
The mudhorn egg was a type of large egg, covered in brown fur similar to in appearance and texture to a mudhorn's hide. Being oviparous, Mudhorns would lay only a single egg per clutch, burying them within the muddy cave-nests found across the surface of planet Arvala-7. Filled with a thick yellow-orange yolk, these eggs were considered a delicacy by Jawas, who consumed their yolk raw by the handful, though they proved difficult to acquire without outside assistance due to the scarcity and ferocity of mudhorn mothers.
==History==
In 9 ABY,Star Wars: Timelines a bounty hunter known as Din Djarin sought an egg from a mudhorn cave at the request of an Offworld Jawa tribe led by chief Chettkap, in exchange for parts the tribe had stolen from the bounty hunter's gunship, the Razor Crest. That same year, Hunter team Utooni, consisting of pair of Jawa brothers, were commonly depicted in-character happily consuming mudhorn eggs on stickers and graffiti.
At some point the Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs acquired a mudhorn egg from some Jawas on Arvala-7 while trying to purchase a hypersonic oven and was able to create a batch of Mudhorn Eggnog that lasted him an entire season. He later included a recipe for the beverage in his second cookbook, The Life Day Cookbook, which he released at some point after publishing his first cookbook in 34 ABY.
==Behind the scenes==
Mudhorn eggs first appeared in Chapter 2 of Jon Favreau's 2019 Disney+ television series The Mandalorian, directed by Rick Famuyiwa, which aired on November 15, 2019.
According to the Star Wars: The Life Day Cookbook, written by Jenn Fujikawa and Marc Sumerak and released on November 2, 2021, the out-of-universe recipe requires whole milk, half-and-half, vanilla extract, a cinnamon stick, salt, egg yolks, granulated sugar, egg whites, confectioners' sugar, ground nutmeg, and ground cinnamon.
