But first, what egg-actly is National Egg Day?

The History of National Egg Day

The tradition dates back to 1921 when the first National Egg Day celebration took place in Washington State in response to a new highway designed specifically for transportation of poultry products and eggs. Back then, this industry was new and a few entrepreneurs in the town of Winlock aimed to capitalize on it by throwing an annual egg day festival. The town still observes this festival every year and brings their best eggs forward.

Although you don’t need a special day to eat and honor eggs, National Egg Day is a great excuse to cook up an egg storm! Besides, you don’t need to be Gordon Ramsay—you just need the right tools. Take a look at the cookware we’ve collected and you’ll be well on your way to making the best frittata you’ve ever had.
