    I don't think Guga realises he has literally just made another Chinese/Japanese recipe for eggs called soy eggs or 卤蛋 by complete accident. They might not be boiled in the mixture but I think it's similar enough. So technically he's not even comparing century eggs to century eggs.

      No tea eggs are made differently and usually only takes a few hours. It’s eggs cooked in tea, soy sauce, star anise and other aromatics. Sometimes the shells are cracked halfway through so the cooking liquid and soak in and dye the egg. They look brown due to the tea and soy sauce.

    Hi, this is a fan from China. It is fun to see people enjoying different food. In China, we cut the egg into pieces and mix it with sauce (the sauce you have for tofu is perfect for the egg). If you directly take a big bite, you will taste a strong
    ammonia flavor. That will be too strong and as a person who grows up eating it, I do not recommend one try that at home LOL.

    century eggs is made by fermentation, by covering the egg with rice husks, ash, quicklime and salt, leaving them for weeks or months, which is something like what you do with your beef steaks by dry aging them on your channels.
    however your take on century eggs is just marinating, which is a totally different concept from the original century egg.
    if you want to try another weird egg, try salted egg, it is fermented with ash and salt with the shell intact, trust me the yolk is good!

    I loved the century eggs growing up! My mom always just called them black eggs. I did not know about the special process of making it until I got much older. My background is Chinese (Cantonese) and I was born and raised in NYC. I remember going to my local Chinese supermarket in NYC, buying it, going home and just eat one of these straight up. (Without the peel of course. I did not like the grainy egg shells on my egg and always tried to see if could peel it in one go without the outer part of the egg splitting.) I still can eat it as is and it's delicious to me. Definitely not for everyone tho. Kudos for you and your cousin trying it. I am glad your cousin can eat it. I am sure he would enjoy it a lot more prepared as part of a dish. I highly recommend revisiting this with a chef who can make such a dish that will make you like it a lot more!

    for anyone who hasnt tried century egg. its actually amazing. its just very overpowering if you smell it. but if you take a small amount with rice porriage (which is very bland). the bland/sweetness of the rice with the fermented taste of the egg. they balance each other out. taste great with sweetened soy sauce and tofu. Giga did a good job with the tofu. The only difference between his and the century egg is that the fermentation of the traditional egg has the usual alcohol tangy aftertaste from the fermentation.

    "Anything weird from your country?"
    Yeah, sure. The infamous Surströmming (Fermented Herring) from Sweden, but done right.
    This is often showed online by people simply opening the can and eating it straight up. It's disgusting, and not how anyone eats it. You can't just take a teaspoon of salt and think it will taste good. It's all about balance, but it still isn't for some people and I understand that.
    Quick breakdown for the only way I personally can stand eating it;
    First of all, the can of herring MUST be opened outside, preferrably in some sort of water barrel or something (as long as its under water) so you contain some of the smell.
    A soft white unleavened flatbread (a wheat tortilla will actually work as a substitute here, I have tried it and it's ok)
    Sourcream with dill and chives mixed in
    Some sort small mealy potato, boiled with dill and salt, cut into small pieces
    Raw diced onion, or pickled red onion
    1 or two fillets of herring
    Roll this up to what essentially becomes a very strange taco.
    Optional: Red caviar.
    Thanks Guga! This was a great video and not all about that "shock" factor so many other clickbait channels go for. It was reasonable and well thought out.

    While I love Guga videos, let's make one thing clear: What he made using a soy sauce mixture isn't even CLOSE to what you call Century Eggs so calling them a "version" of them is completely wrong. People shouldn't get the wrong idea and call it a "version of Century Egg".

    Guga, first I want to say that I’m a big fan. I try to watch all your videos. The thousand year old egg can also be used as an ingredient in other dishes instead as the main attraction. We eat it in Chinese rice porridge called “jook”. This can be found at most dim sum restaurants. My mother puts the egg in her homemade jook because she said it helps break down the rice.

    2. What guga made is something called 卤蛋 which is a completely different product in china. Koreans and especially Japanese also enjoy this technique and the Japanese usually put one of those on their ramen.

    When eating century egg,
    best tip is to pair it with Japanese shoyu(kikoman)+garlic that way it will eradicate the foul smell(if you are not fond with it) and it will even enhance the creamy taste of the century egg if you pair it with rice porridge.
    I hated century egg but when my cousin thought me the tip above, it change my view.

    Hey guga! The century egg is very popular in my country but we cooked it in a different way. First we deep fried this egg and then we stir fried garlic and chilli untill it release a wonderful smell after that we put oyster sauce,fish sauce and a little bit of sugar to balance the sweet and saltiness and put the fried egg back to the pan and before we turn off the gas put a lot of Thai basil and keep stir it a few second you will get a nice Pad gra pao century egg! Combine with fluffy jasmine rice. I think its the best way to cook this egg in my opinion

I then dice the century egg (1000 yr old egg), diced salted egg and mix it into the grounded pork. I then add a raw regular egg and mix it into the pork. Add abit of salt, ginger, sesame old, and sugar for added flavor. Put the pork mixture into a deep pan, then steam it till cook. It will have some liquid in it after steaming. When done, eat with rice and your choice of vegetables.😉

This sauce I believe has enough acidity that you should be able to use a tenderizer and even dry age. The flavor however is phenomenal. It is called "BRANSTON PICKLE". This sauce has a lovely flavor that I'm confident you'll enjoy. Please try this out and let me know how it works out for you.
