• Weigh down with a small plate or a plastic bag filled with water. Cover and keep in a cool, dry place for about 18 to 21 days.
• Drain eggs from the solution.

HOW TO MAKE SALTED EGGS

Steps:

• In a pot, bring the water with the salt to a boil. Once the salt completely dissolves, turn off the heat. Let cool completely.
• Meanwhile, place the fresh eggs in a big glass jar. Pour the brine solution into the jar making sure that all eggs are fully submerged.
• To keep the eggs from floating to the surface, put some water in a plastic bag and place this on top of the jar to push the eggs down.
• Close the lid of the jar and store it somewhere at room temperature for 3-4 weeks.
• At the end of the third week, test one by putting it in a small pot, add water and bring it to boil. Boil for 10-12 minutes covered at low heat. If you are satisfied with the saltiness, then boil the rest. If not, then leave for another week.
• Mark the salted eggs and refrigerate up to a month.

Steps:

• Wash and dry the eggs. Rinse the eggs under cool, running water while using your fingers to gently scrub away any dirt or debris. Dry the eggs with clean paper towels. While cleaning the eggs, inspect the shells for cracks. Discard any cracked eggs and keep the whole eggs. Duck eggs are preferred over chicken eggs for this recipe, but either will work. Duck eggs have tougher shells, and the yolks are both larger and oilier than those of chicken eggs. All of these traits can improve the taste and texture of the salted eggs.
• Sterilize the container. Bring extra water to a boil inside a kettle, then pour the water into the container you plan to use for the salted eggs. Glass or ceramic containers work best, and the container should also have a lid. You can also use multiple containers; for instance, you could use two or three 1-pint (500-ml) glass canning jars. If the container will crack under intense heat, do not sterilize it with boiling water. Clean it with warm water and soap instead, rinsing well to remove any residue.
• Place the eggs in the jar. Carefully stack the clean eggs in the clean jar. Be gentle to avoid cracking the shells. Try to leave at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) of empty head space in between the eggs and the top of the jar. You can have more empty space than that, but if there's less empty space, the brine may not cover the eggs adequately well once you add it.

Steps:

• Wash eggs.
• Place the rest of the ingredients in a large container with a lid.
• Mix until salt is completely dissolved; let cool.
• Add eggs (Make sure the eggs are completely submerged. The eggs will have a tendency to float to the top. Use something to put on top of the eggs to ensure the eggs remain submerged once the lid is closed.) Leave in room temperature for 30 days.
• After 30 days, boil eggs.
• When cool, refrigerate.
• Enjoy!

SALTED EGG YOLKS

Steps:

• Cover the base of a container about 2cm deep in fine salt (crunchy won't work).
• Use the back of a tablespoon to make as many dents in the salt as there are yolks to cure.
• Separate the yolks well so there is no white at all attached, then carefully sit them in the dents.
• Completely cover the eggs with more salt. Leave in the fridge for eight hours, or overnight.
• The next day, remove the yolks - they will have hardened to the texture of a sticky gummy sweet.
• Wash them under cold water, dry them carefully on kitchen paper and marvel at how much they resemble dried apricots.
• Heat your oven to its lowest setting (60C/fan 40C/gas 1 /4 is ideal) and dry the yolks on an oiled cooling rack for three hours until dry and hard.
• Once they have cooled, the yolks are ready to finely grate. Amazingly, they will keep in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 months.

SALTED DUCK EGGS

Steps:

• Sanitize your glass container. Boil enough water to fully fill your jar. Allow water to cool just enough so as to not damage your jar when you pour it inches Wait a minute or two, pour the water out and allow your jar to air dry.
• Inspect your eggs for cracks and breaks. Damaged eggs should be exchanged out. Rinse, drain, and set aside.
• In a good sized saucepan being the water, salt, star anise, and peppercorns to a gentle boil. When the salt has completely dissolved turn off the heat and let cool completely. When the brine is cold add the Shaoxing wine. Stir to mix well.
• You will want to make sure your eggs are completely un-damaged one more time. Stack the eggs carefully in the jar.
• Pour the brine over the eggs. If they float above the brine place a weight (i.e. a small sauce plate) on top of the eggs.
• If your jar has a tight fitting lid then cover and label with the date made and the date 40 days ( max ) forward. At 30 days open the jar, remove and boil an egg and taste for saltiness. If the taste is satisfactory then you can remove eggs from jar and place then in a container and refrigerate.
• They will keep in the fridge for 2-3 weeks.
• If your jar lid feels a bit loose take a piece of waxpaper to place over the opening then put the lid on . Label and test as above.
• The dark orange-red yolk is a normal and highly desired effect. It is due to the use of the Shaoxing wine.
