7 Easy Steps To Make Salted Egg Prawn
By. Nevanda - 17 Apr 2023
kelolalaut.com - Salted egg is a popular ingredient in many Southeast Asian cuisines, particularly in Chinese, Filipino, and Indonesian cuisine. It is made by preserving duck or chicken eggs in a mixture of salt, water, and sometimes other ingredients such as charcoal, tea leaves, or lime. The eggs are left to soak in the mixture for a few weeks to a few months, depending on the desired level of saltiness and flavour.
The result is a hard-boiled egg with a distinctive orange-red yolk and a salty, rich flavour. Salted egg is often used as an ingredient in various dishes, such as salted egg fried rice, salted egg potato chips, salted egg custard buns, and salted egg prawns. It is also used as a condiment or garnish, such as in salads, steamed dishes, and congee. The flavour of salted egg is quite strong and salty, so it should be used in moderation.
