Century egg is a Chinese cuisine ingredient made by preserving duck, chicken or quail eggs in mixture of clay, ash, salt, lime, and rice straw for several weeks to several months. After the process is completed, the yolk becomes a dark green, cream-like substance with a strong odor of sulfur and ammonia, while the white becomes a dark brown, transparent jelly with little flavor or taste. The transforming agent in century egg is its alkaline material, which gradually raises the pH of egg from around 9 to 12 or more. |
I can handle the sambal belacan. I adore spicy hot (really hot) food. I would have to pass on the bak kut teh because I will not eat anything with offal or tofu. As for the century egg, if this were a gross out contest, you would be the winner, hands down!
So as it now stands, you are
way far ahead. I doubt anyone will be able to top that one.
Let's just wait and see. You now hold the "Master of EEEe-ew" throne.
