Century egg, also known as preserved egg, hundred-year egg, or millennium egg, is a Chinese delicacy made by preserving duck, chicken, or quail eggs in a mixture of clay, ash, salt, quicklime, and rice hulls for several weeks to months. The preservation process transforms the egg yolk into a dark green or gray color with a creamy consistency and a strong flavor, while the egg white turns into a dark brown, translucent jelly with a slightly salty taste. Century eggs are often enjoyed on their own, sliced and served with pickled ginger, or used as an ingredient in various Chinese dishes like congee or salads.
