Salted duck egg

Exotic food in Kuching with salted duck eggs

Salted duck egg was my favorite and it reminds me how hard my dad work to support nine of us until his last breath. Every bit and pieces of this salty duck egg has it own story of hardship.

Never the less, salted duck egg could be one of the best preserved food products in Chinese history.

    This goes to show that we all love salted duck egg! Hahahaha anyway, you didn’t visit me because you forgot me already lo… bad bad hahahaha

    Speedyyyyyyyyy,

    The traditional way the salted egg was preserved was soak the eggs in damp salted charcoal. I’m not sure it will be soak for how long, maybe until the charcoal was dry and for at least more than a week. The traditional Chinese would store this eggs (with the black charcoal wrapped around the eggs) in a big porcelain jar.

    Your uncle Butch sure a loving kind person and know how to make every one feels at home! (You are missing the sweet moment, didn’t you? Hahaha sweet!)

    This reply comes in late, I hope by now your “cruppy” feeling has gone 😉

    I might have something interesting to post in a day or 2 if I’m not pretty tied up with things. See you my friend!

    _butt,

    Long time no see ohh, hope you are well and happy! Watch any movie lately? 🙂

    Kim,

    You never seen one? Actually the yolks were the best part of this salted duck egg! (That’s the reason why JenJen tried to steal it from me hahahah) surprise! The yellow yolk is not salty but the albumen(white) part will.

    I would guess that china town should have these salted duck eggs! You should buy few and boil it (well cooked)! Normally we ate salted eggs with white rice or porridge. In Malaysia, all the major hotels will prepare salted duck eggs with porridge for breakfast, in case you are coming to Malaysia, remember to try it in Malaysian way 😉 (don’t worry, those hotels do have western foods)

    *Muck!*

    Blurryhunniee,

  9. Netster,
    I am very good to you mar..egg yolk not good for health mar, high cholestrol. So, I sacrifice myself and eat on your behalf lar…good or not???

  11. Netster, I have never had a duck egg, or anything duck! I guess America is so chicken driven …. chickens driving cars (how silly)

    Is the “Salted Egg” a way of preserving the food, or the preparation technique?

    Nine kids? Wow! My family has only 2 boys. There was one relative in our extended family with 9 children. When we went to their house for visits years ago, I remember how much fun we had because there were just so many kids …. so much to share, see, and do. My Uncle Butch would always give us a ride on his mini bike before leaving … even though the only place you could ride was the narrow strip of grass between their house and the nieghbors house.

    I am home sick one more day. Ishhhhh!!!! Tired of feeling cruppy. (I made that word up) 🙂

    See you at the next blog, my friend!
