How to choose fresh and delicious quail eggs
- Hold the egg up to the light; you will see the yolk and white of the egg very clearly, the air cell at the top of the egg is very small, and the inside of the egg is clear without any black spots.
- Touch the surface of the eggshell; if the surface is rough and slightly grainy, then it is fresh quail eggs, while a smooth surface means the egg has been stored for quite some time and should not be purchased.
- Hold the egg and shake it gently; if there is no sound, it is a fresh egg. Conversely, the louder the sound, the more likely it is that the egg is spoiled or it is an egg that is being incubated.

Product
Salted quail eggs after soaking have a quite firm yolk and a fragrant smell. The egg white does not become cloudy or have a foul yellow color. You can use these salted eggs to prepare dishes or as a filling for various cakes, which will be very delicious and rich.
How to store salted eggs
- You take the eggs out, dry them thoroughly, then store them in the refrigerator to use gradually for 10 – 12 days.
- To store the eggs longer, you can crack the eggs to take the yolks and steam or bake them until cooked, then store them in the freezer. With this method, you can preserve the eggs for 2 – 3 months, but do not keep them longer as they will lose their fragrance.
- Do not store the eggs at room temperature as the heat of the environment can easily cause the eggs to become oily on the outside but dry and hard on the inside, only preserving them for 1 – 2 days.
