what does this taste like? eggy?

wiki says cheese? how do you know you're not getting a spoiled one?

sanskrit, Monday, 22 October 2007 16:27 (sixteen years ago) link

nah, not cheese at all (at least not in my opinion). it kind of tastes like really concentrated, smoky egg.

lauren, Monday, 22 October 2007 16:51 (sixteen years ago) link

Not selling me.

Laurel, Monday, 22 October 2007 16:53 (sixteen years ago) link

i don't think i'd like it, because i have an aversion to hard-boiled eggs and it looks like it would have a similar texture. they are really beautiful though.

bell_labs, Monday, 22 October 2007 16:56 (sixteen years ago) link

they're chewier. if you don't like the regular thing, i can't imagine you'd like the aged version.

laurel, based on what i know of your tastes i really don't think that this is the thing for you!

i thought pickled eggs sounded vile, but this takes it. aging is good for booze and cheese, anything else makes me a little leery.

Yeah, dude, century eggs wouldn't float in the Midwest. Pass the mashed potatoes.

But wait can I just say that I had the most amazing garlic cloves at that tapas place on Metropolitan and they were wonderful and a little sweet&sour and NOT GARLICKY AT ALL and I could have eaten a dozen of them. WHAT WERE THEY? Is that pickled garlic? Because sign me the fuck up.

there's a century egg & hamachi sushi made near my my house that approaches divinity

remy bean, Monday, 22 October 2007 17:02 (sixteen years ago) link

is this the same as "thousand year old egg"?

Steve Shasta, Monday, 22 October 2007 17:07 (sixteen years ago) link

yup.

Inflation don't y'know.

Jon Lewis, Monday, 22 October 2007 17:11 (sixteen years ago) link

Is Bird's Nest Soup higher or lower on the DNW scale than century egg?

Jon Lewis, Monday, 22 October 2007 19:40 (sixteen years ago) link

higher

am0n, Monday, 22 October 2007 19:44 (sixteen years ago) link

I think I wld eat the egg first.

Jon Lewis, Monday, 22 October 2007 19:45 (sixteen years ago) link

i would eat a century egg before I would eat bird's nest soup, but i'd eat the soup before I ate baloot -- a steamed 16-day fertilized chicken egg, popular in the phillipines. i mean, munching through gelatinous, half-formed baby chick? NO.

nom nom nom

I'm a fairly adventurous eater but I dunno about ol' smoky egg

Jon Lewis, Monday, 22 October 2007 20:14 (sixteen years ago) link

are they stinky? what do they smell like?

bell_labs, Monday, 22 October 2007 20:15 (sixteen years ago) link

funky in a good way, recommended.
