INGREDIENTS
200g of green chili pepper
2 century eggs
3 cloves of garlic
1 tbsp of soy sauce
1/4 tsp of salt
1.5 tbsp of Chinese black vinegar
2 tsp of sesame oil
1/4 cup of diced cilantro
INSTRUCTIONS
Skewer the chilies on the stick and roast them on an open fire until nicely charred.
Scrub some of the burn skin. Doesn’t need to be completely because we want to keep some smoky flavor.
Shred the chilies into strips.
Pound a few cloves of garlic using mortal and pestle until pasty.
Add century eggs and grilled chilies, lightly pound and mix well.
Season with soy sauce, salt, Chinese black vinegar, sesame oil, and cilantro.
I eat these in my congee to up the flavor 😀 The savory congee with cilantro and century eggs and some pork bits make it soooo good
No thank you, trying to eat less preservatives.
They don't look very appealing, but I would give it a go…
I had them before & I don't like them
I’m sorry but this sounds like it would kill me
No thank you, I passed
Is the salt necessary? As the soy sauce is already salty…
Do you have to cook these eggs before you eat them or you can eat them straight from the box ?
Looks ????! I never seen those eggs! They look so cool!
Learned something new that is totallt useful to me. I use a lot of chilli and your way of roastng the chilli is fantastic. Thank you.
Who invited this recipe? Who decided to even eat these eggs, the first time? Who’s idea was it to soak the eggs and name the 100 yr eggs?? All very interesting to me…

Sodium Hydroxide is lye, an alkaline chemical. In high concentrations, it's highly corrosive. In low concentrations, it's quite safe to handle and to eat—like Acetic Acid, which, in a 5-10% solution is vinegar.
Looks SO GOOD ????
I love your recipes but I have learnt to use a third of the amount you suggest when it comes to chilly or vinegar. The half cup of vinegar you put on that single dose salad proved me right once again ????.
Love these eggs & will definitely give it a try! Thanks!
Is it true that century was made from horse pee? ????
Never had one but see them at the Asian market. I just bought a new mortar and pestle so I can’t think of a better way to break it in! Thanks, Mandy!
