Method
- 1 Wash the duck eggs thoroughly, pat them dry, and discard any with cracked shells.
- 2 Boil water with salt, cinnamon, star anise, and black tea until dissolved, then let it cool completely.
- 3 The brine must be completely cool before soaking the eggs; warm water will cook the eggs and ruin the whole jar.
- 4 Roll each egg in strong liquor and then arrange them in a glass jar.
- 5 Pour saltwater over the eggs until they are completely submerged, then place a small plate underneath to prevent them from floating to the surface.
- 6 Let it ferment in a dark place for 30 days, then boil for 12 minutes. The yolks should be orange-red and oozing oil to be ready.
