She then thought why not try making own salted eggs. Maybe can reduce the cost. Thanks to Mr G, it seems that there are people who uses chicken eggs to make salted eggs instead of duck eggs. Much cheaper.
Wokay la...Asked Mr G for the recipe. There are many recipe online. Some says just water and salt , some says have to put peppercorn, some say this and that. Hence, Mamarazzi took a bit from here and a bit from there la.
The ratio of salt and water is 1cup of salt : 2 cups of water. Filled up the container. Yup...she used plastic container. According to some people it's safe to use. But if you can get glass container that would be the best la.
Washed and put the eggs into the container. She added 1 piece of star anise coz one blog mentioned that it would enhance the taste. She also added a tablespoon of Chinese cooking wine as another blog mentioned that it would make the yolk turn red.
Another blog mentioned using Kampung Chicken eggs is better than the normal ones. Hence Mamarazzi put two types of eggs into the container. Have to wait 21 days before the eggs are ready for consumption.
At the end of the period, Mamarazzi was pretty excited. broke open 3 kampung eggs and 3 normal eggs. Hmmm....can see the kampung eggs yolk is more reddish than the normal eggs.
Well, it did not go to waste as that day Mamarazzi made steamed glutinous chicken rice for us to eat.
Yumm yumm...had eating competition with Papa. No worries, Auntie Claire. The baju still fits leh.
Wahhh auntie Claire made that baju for you? Very nice wor! :P
ReplyDeleteYa ..she poslaju over for Xmas 2 years ago
DeleteThe kampung egg yolks are reddish!
ReplyDeleteLike sun set. Mamarazzi loves it
DeleteI will only eat the yolks, don't like the whites.
ReplyDeleteYou are same as Mamarazzi
DeleteI love pickled eggs. lil kitten ...sending you a video on how 2 make them: https://www.youtube.com/embed/EZVgXyT9He4?rel=0&controls=0&showinfo=0 ... Love, cat.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot Meow. Will ask Mamarazzi to experiment
DeleteWah! Mamarazzi is so good lah!
ReplyDeleteStill learning
DeleteSee it, makes me tempted to make it myself... But 21 days...
ReplyDeleteVery fast fly away de
DeleteOh? I think can buy fresh duck eggs too, can make using those. Here, salted eggs are RM4.00 for 4 big ones, RM3.50 for 4, smaller ones...very good salted eggs, fresh like own made...not wrapped in the black black thing one.
ReplyDeleteHere fresh duck eggs cost between 50 to 70sens depending on size. Since not much cost saving, might as well buy the ready made salted duck eggs.
DeleteI used to take the egg white only. Now more adventurous, I could take egg yolk too.
ReplyDeleteNever make own salted egg. Maybe one of these days, using your method.
Oh you have the same taste as me.
DeleteHahaha...nice to eat with porridge
Wah, mama macam boleh read my mind.. I've been thinking about homemade hamtan too, coz outside sell quite pricey, and I can eat 5 hamtan at one go! Thanks for sharing mama..
ReplyDelete5 at one go?! It's too much leh. Not good for health. Yes very pricey. Try make your own.easy must hentam taruk and wait 21 days
DeleteThe salted eggs very successful le and the red egg yolks looks so nice. I love salted egg yolks more than the whites.
ReplyDeleteYou are same like Mamarazzi . She likes the yolk more.
DeleteMy all time fav, the yolk only. Didn't know can make from chicken eggs and in plastic container. So happy for this sharing.
ReplyDeleteYou are same as mamarazzi. likes the yolk. mamarazzi also didnt know till she saw in a facebook group
DeleteI like to eat both the salted egg whites and yolk. Good that mamarazzi now makes her own salted eggs, no need to buy already to make mooncakes and bak chang.
ReplyDeleteStill need to buy to make bak chang as it's not enough
Deletei just realized your son getting to be so big now.
ReplyDeleteYup...time flies
DeleteWow complete success! *thumbs up*
ReplyDeleteI never get the idea of people liking the white haha. The YOLK is the best part hehehe.
On the colour of egg yolk... I read that the more intense the colour, the better the egg. Previously I wasn't in favour of buying kampung egg when Tesco egg is cheaper and bigger. Then recently I had both types and found that, really lah, the yolk of the Tesco egg is a PALE yellow. So now I'm converted. :) (But I think Tesco egg still ok for baking?)
Hi 5 with mamarazzi. Yolk is the best!
Deletesalted egg yolks very popular now no wonder more expensive. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
ReplyDeleteya coz needed for making bak chang and mooncake
DeleteHmmm, must give this a try since I like to eat salted eggs...but wonder if it tastes similar (or come close) to those salted duck eggs.
ReplyDeleteyes taste similar to the normal duck eggs
DeleteMama Kucing is really Geng!! Apa pun boleh buat sekarang... Salute! When it comes to salted eggs, I like the yolk more than the white... usually I put inside the porridge and cook them with peanuts.. my kids and I must have one salted egg each.. otherwise not enough to go round..
ReplyDeletenow apa also try and make lor....
DeleteWah that easy? I never thought making salted eggs that simple. Can save budget la like this,
ReplyDeleteMamarazzi didnt know too till she read in a facebook group. it's so simple to make
DeleteIt looks as if the homemade salted eggs were a big success. Did you win the eating contest?
