Tada…… here they are……. my homemade salted eggs!! It’s been 20 days since I started my little experiment. Yesterday, I decided to test one of the eggs out to test its saltiness.
Verdict: The egg white has just the right saltiness but the egg yolk is not quite there yet. I think I will let it sit for another 5 days before testing it again. What do you all think? Looks good??? :p
Will report back again in another 5 days. : )
P/S: Pssstt…. tigerfish, phew……luckily it didn’t turn into little chicks!! hehehe……

Blur Mummy,
Nice salted eggs Yummy to goes with a bowl of hot plain porridge.
Very nice, very nice.
How can the eggs turn into chicks when they are in preservation stage? Mmmmm, gotta think about this.
wow.. I didn’t know we can make salted eggs on our own at home! And I always thought the salted eggs come from duck eggs!
Oh, do u coat the hard boil eggs with salt, or uses the raw eggs instead?? Again.. I’m really amazed! I might try it too!
sue sue, thanks! Yep, I love it with porridge too!: )
Judy, haha… just a joke from tigerfish from the 1st timemah…. Actuallyhor, after seeing balut, I really do have a little fear even though I know it’s impossible..hehe…

Try it! It’s very easy. I use raw chicken eggs
nice! i think mine will not be salty too, since i didn’t get it coated well enough. still got 11 days to do.
hahha….i knew no chicks…but who knows….someone making mooncakes may swap your salted eggs away….and replace them with ….errr…other eggs.
The salted eggs look beautiful.
wow, looking good salted egg.
Blur Muumy, thanks for stopping by at my blog. Your salted looks better than the one I bought from the Asian store especially the egg yolk. Yours already turn pretty orange color.
Looks great! Maybe I should make some to eat with porridge!
It looks very good! I only like to eat the yolk leh. hehe
whoisbaby: It’s not too salty which is good. Will update again soon.
tigerfish: thanks!
isha: thanks for dropping by!
icook4fun: thanks! I dun tlike those from the store, that’s why I made my own.
LCOM: U shld try it since it’s so easy. It’s definitely better than store-bought ones
wokking mum: thks! I like the yolk too!
the color of the yolk is good and golden! btw, did you use refrigerated chicken eggs? brought down to room temperature first or not?
lamyhome: I brought it down to room temperature first. I think it’s better. Have you tried yours yet?
not yet ready, only on 31st. i see not much salt left on the outside of the egg, salt kinda turned into water. dunno if i should add more.
whoisbaby, On mine, the salt didn’t turn into water. It did sweat & so the salt kinda crystallized. I think u didn’t put enough salt for the salt to absorb the water but I’m not 100% sure. U might want to put a little more salt on 1 of them to test it out.
