Weng'an Songhua Century egg production method

Weng'an Songhua Century egg production and processing method. Seen from the season, spring is the most suitable season. Although the duck is not full and empty, the pickled Century egg is easy to leak oil, good in quality and delicious in taste. To process Century egg, we should first select eggs that are large, free from flowing, cracks, deterioration, and stone shells. The required material ash is made by mixing soil alkali, yellow clay, pine needle ash, salt, lime, bitter tea with water to make a paste. The soil alkali is made by precipitating and boiling buckwheat stem ash, tung shell ash, and plant ash. Whether the performance of the material ash is appropriate can be tested by dropping the egg white of fresh duck eggs on the material ash. If the egg white solidifies after about 15 minutes of dripping, it indicates that the material ash is properly prepared. The proportion of ingredients should also be determined according to the season, increasing or decreasing with seasonal changes. Various ingredients have their different functions. Soil alkali and lime can produce a coagulation effect on egg whites, and their taste is not as spicy as using soda ash. Yellow soil mainly serves as a bonding agent, while pine needle ash can present different pine needle patterns on the solidified protein, creating a sense of craftsmanship and adding a certain fragrance. After preparation, put the selected duck eggs into a large pot or pool with material ash, gently flip them with a wooden spatula, and be careful not to damage the duck eggs. After mixing, pour them into two seasons and release them from the tank around January, store them for about six months, and release them from the tank after 20 days in hot summer, and store them for three months
