Pre-cooked Salted Black Duck Eggs (Pidan / Century Egg) - 6 x 62 g Black duck eggs, popularly known as century eggs or pidan, are a well-known specialty in Asian cuisine with roots in Chinese food tradition. The eggs are prepared by preserving duck eggs in a mixture of charcoal and quicklime, a method that over time transforms both the yolk and the white into their characteristic dark green and translucent appearance. The result is a product with a distinct, umami-rich taste and a silky, almost cheesy consistency that clearly distinguishes it from regular boiled eggs. On the surface of the egg white, a decorative crystalline pattern emerges during the preservation process, which in Chinese is called "Songhua" and visually resembles pine branches. The eggs are pre-cooked and ready to use - they can be served directly after removing the shell, sliced and arranged with soy sauce and ginger, or used as a flavoring ingredient in hot dishes such as congee, wonton soup, and noodle broth. The texture is firm on the outside with a creamy, almost liquid yolk that adds a rich depth to dishes. The package contains six individually wrapped eggs, each with a net weight of 62 grams, placed in a transparent plastic tray that ensures protection during storage and transport. The product is naturally gluten-free and suitable for people following a gluten-free diet. Storage should be in a cool place and away from direct sunlight to best preserve taste and quality. Century eggs are aimed at food enthusiasts and chefs looking for authentic Asian ingredients for homemade recipes, and are an obvious choice for those who want to explore traditional Chinese taste experiences. The product is suitable as an ingredient in Asian cooking, as an accompaniment to cold starters, or as an exotic taste experience for the curious palate.Product DeclarationContent:DUCK EGG, water, salt, tea leaves, stabilizer: E524Allergens: EGGNutritional content per 100 g Nutrient Amount Energy 578kJ / 138kcal Fat 9.32 g – of which saturated fatty acids 3.27 g – of which unsaturated fatty acids g Carbohydrate 12.49 g – of which sugars 0 g Protein 13.49 g Salt 0.7 g Calcium mg
