Homemade Salted Egg 自制咸蛋


Ingredient:

12 duck egg ( I use chicken egg)
4 cups of water
1 cups of salt sea salt
1 tsp of shaoxing cooking wine.

Method:

Salted egg is very easy to make as long as all the utensil we use is clean without oil.
1.   Prepare egg rinse and air dry

2.   In a pot pour in water , add in salt bring it boil. Once the salt completely dissolves turn off the heat and           let cool completely ( stay cool over night also can )

3.   Pour the salt water in a super clean container ( prefer glass container) I use plastic. Put in all the egg  and cover the container , place at room temperature( i store it in the pantry)

Salted egg ready in 3 weeks. Can try to cook one egg after 3 weeks and taste whether salty enough. If not salty can let it brine for another week.  The egg in the pic about one month and you can see the yolk that releases oil after being cooked is consider as high quality product. Use duck egg maybe need longer time because duck egg with thicker shell.
