How to Make Salted Eggs - "The Dangerous Secrets Revealed - Yuck Yuck OR Yum Yum"

I always enjoy eating Salted Egg in combination with tomatoes. Everyone in the Philippines called this "Red Egg" because of the red dye color on its shell.

The presence of "red dye", unluckily, is unsafe to human because it can penetrate the pore of the shell. It can also contaminate the eggs in preparing it as food while removing the shells.

So I decided to make my own Salted Eggs.

There are Two(2) known Methods of doing these.

1. By soaking eggs in a mixture of 50% salt plus 50% water for 18-24 days.
2. By wrapping eggs in a moist mud mixed with equal amount of salt for 18-24 days.

After applying any method above, the final touch is by cleaning and boiling/steaming eggs for four(4) hours in medium heat.

I will describe with much details the Second Method.

In the Second Method, I choose the mud known as "punso". This is the mud created by White Ants or Termites ("anay"). In the Philippine countryside, folks believe that dwarfs lives in there and the term "nuno sa punso" became a legend.

I believe that it is safer to choose the "punso" because there is a zero possibility that it may be contaminated by poison and minerals specially if white ants  or Termites or "anay" are still living there.

My Procedures:

1. Mix equal amount of "punso" and sea salt.
2. Add a little water to moist the mixture.
3. Get fresh eggs. I check the eggs by looking it directly under a light source. There should be no dark spots inside the egg.
4. Get an empty egg tray.
5. Wrap the eggs with mud mixtures and put it on the the egg tray.
6. Keep it in a safe place for 24 days.
7. On the 24th day, clean the eggs.
8. Boil or steam the eggs for four(4) hours in medium heat.
9. DO NOT color it. Red dye is harmful to human.
10. Enjoy
