Asian Taste Presserved Duck Eggs 12.7 Oz

Okay, I just had to write this review immediately after opening our order! Asian Taste Preserved Duck Eggs are EXACTLY what we've been yearning for, a genuine taste of our childhood memories! These delicate treasures arrived perfectly intact, not a single crack or chip in sight. They were nestled securely, clearly packed with real care. That alone was a massive relief and a sign of quality. But the real magic happened when we peeled them open... That first bite was an instant time machine! The rich, complex umami flavor, that unique creamy-yet-firm texture of the egg white, and that gloriously intense, molten, almost-cheesy yolk... it was EXACTLY as we remembered from years ago. No weird aftertastes, no off-putting smells – just pure, authentic, perfectly balanced preserved duck egg perfection. It’s incredible how a single taste can transport you back decades. These eggs captured that deep, savory, slightly fermented magic that made them such a beloved treat in our family. The flavor profile is spot-on – complex, earthy, deeply satisfying, and utterly unique. It’s not just food; it’s a sensory memory unlocked. Note***Preserved eggs are designed to be eaten cold or at room temperature, with no further cooking required. They are a ready-to-eat product. The best ways to enjoy their unique creamy, rich texture and complex flavor. If you want to incorporate them into a hot dish like soup, the key is to treat them as a garnish, not an ingredient to be cooked.

The eggs themselves come in-shell. However, the shell itself is pretty and makes a good presentation, and they are as easy to peel as conventional hard-boiled eggs. This is my first time eating century eggs, but the flavor was straightforward and consistent between eggs. The amber-black contents of the shell tasted pretty much like hard-boiled egg, but was a pleasantly hearty version that reminded me of the livermush my great-grandmother used to serve me on weekend mornings when I visited. It makes me feel full and satisfied, and it goes well with coffee in my opinion. For anybody the flavor resonates well with, I believe it will be a new morning staple. I will be buying this again.

Taste like fart

Ww were slow to eat one. But surprisingly they are really good. The yoke is super creamy and the white is kinda like jello. They do smell like ammonia after shelled, but it dies down if you let it sit for a minute without the shell. Little bit of salt or soy sauce is the way to go

I wanted to try this. I was afraid it might be "weird". I was wrong. No smell other than taste like an regular egg. The eggs color reminded me if Easter eggs. The egg sturdiness was perfect. What I get was a good price.

They all arrived perfectly intact, NO stink to any of them. I put them in the fridge to chill. Cracked my first one and it was great. That "clay" taste comes through, tiny smell of ammonia I guess I would call it. Little bit of the sulpher taste you get from any egg. Very creamy. Love these. You have to like this particular flavor, it's not for everyone ...but these are on point if you do!

Absolutely wretched, but I hate eggs so it's not their fault. They taste just like eggs with a texture similar to gelatin. Unpleasant if you don't like eggs, but I you like eggs they'd probably work for you. Supposed to be cut up and put in rice porridge with pork, not eaten like a hard boiled egg.

So my local asian market just so happens to sell this exact same brand, but getting to said market can be tricky, sometimes, because it's SO local and the hours are very limited. So, thankfully, I already had experience with these eggs. They're delicious. And thankfully, these ones were no different! Absolutely delicious and nutritious! My favorite way to eat them: If I'm making pan-fried ramen (Indomie MiGoreng, usually), I like a fried egg ontop. So, I take one of these eggs, chop it up, and crack a fresh egg. Sprinkle this ontop -- Done! It adds an interesting texture and flavor difference. Best enjoyed with garlic chives, in my opinion!
