If it is not careful, the protein will hydrate, so the technical requirements are high. If eggs are used as preserved eggs, it is very complicated to first choose intact eggs with proper size without cracks, then check the size of air holes with light, and then control the pH value of the finished product from soaking time, environmental temperature, humidity and packaging. Moreover, the protein of preserved eggs made of eggs is gel-like, and the yolk is yellow and oil-free. The taste is completely different from that of duck eggs. Generally speaking, duck eggs are more suitable for preserved eggs.
