Description
Preserved Black Duck Egg - 360 g
Preserved black duck egg, also known as thousand-year egg or century egg, is a well-known and traditional product from Asian cuisine. The eggs are produced using a special preservation process where duck eggs are treated with water, black tea, and salt, which gives them their characteristic dark color and intense flavor. The product is sold in a package with a net weight of 360 g and should be stored in a cool, dry place to maintain quality. The preserved duck egg has a firm, jelly-like egg white with a dark brown to black color, while the yolk appears greenish-gray with a creamy and soft texture. The taste is deep, salty, and rich in umami with a slightly sulfuric undertone, which is typical for this type of preserved egg. The product is traditionally used as an accompaniment to congee (rice porridge), in cold appetizers, sliced with soy sauce and ginger, or as an ingredient in various Asian specialties. It is a popular choice among food enthusiasts who want to explore authentic Asian flavors at home.
