How to choose fresh and delicious duck eggs
-
Shake the egg gently: gently shake it near your ear to listen. If you hear a noise, the egg has been stored for a long time. Fresh chicken eggs will not make a sound when shaken.
- Use a salt solution: Drop the egg into a basin of 10% salt water; if the egg sinks to the bottom, it is fresh. If the egg floats on the surface, it has been stored for a long time and should not be used.
- Observe the eggshell: it usually has a dark brown shell, even in color, with no cracks and no black spots. A pale shell with many black spots indicates an old egg.
-
Feel the texture: a rough, slightly grainy surface indicates a fresh chicken egg. If the surface is smooth, the egg has been stored for quite some time.
-
Light test: if you shine a light through the egg and see a small air cell, a round yolk that does not move, with an orange-red or pale pink color, and clear egg white, then it is a fresh chicken egg. Conversely, an old egg will show a large air cell, a red yolk, and visible veins.

How to make Savory Crepes
-
Mixing the crepe batter
First, you add two duck eggs, 1/3 teaspoon of salt, 1/3 teaspoon of seasoning, and 1/3 teaspoon of sugar into a bowl and whisk well.
Then, you add 200g of rice flour, 50g of tapioca flour, and 1/3 teaspoon of baking powder into the bowl with the eggs and mix well.
Tip:
-
You can use a hand mixer to speed up the batter mixing process.
-
To ensure the batter is smooth and does not tear when frying, you should refrigerate the batter for 30 minutes before frying!
-
-
Frying the crepes
Place a non-stick pan on the stove and heat it on high. Then, reduce the heat to low and add a little cooking oil to the pan, spreading it evenly across the surface.
Next, use a ladle to scoop the batter mixture into the pan. At this point, tilt the pan to spread the batter into a thin and even layer.
Tip:
-
You can use a paper towel to wipe off excess oil from the pan, leaving only a thin layer. You can also use an oil-soaked paper towel to wipe the surface of the pan to minimize the amount of oil.
-
Before pouring the batter mixture, you should stir it well to avoid the batter settling at the bottom of the bowl, which causes the top batter to become diluted.

Add savory filling to the crepe
Pour the egg mixture onto the surface of the crepe and use a spoon to spread it evenly. Then, cut the sausage into bite-sized pieces and place them on the crepe.
Next, add a bit of ketchup on top of the crepe for a richer flavor. In the next step, sprinkle the shredded pork evenly over the filling of the crepe.
Finally, fold the crepe, roll it up, or fold it into a triangle shape.
-
Final product
The savory crepe just made has a golden, soft, and chewy shell, with a rich and fragrant filling that is sure to attract anyone. You can serve it with salad to enhance the flavor of this dish!
Successful Execution Tips
-
The crepe batter mixture often tends to clump during mixing. To make the batter smoother, you should sift the flour after stirring!
-
When pouring the batter, you should wait until the crepe is cooked before flipping it. This will minimize the risk of the crepe breaking apart.
How to Store Crepes
- Once the crepes are done, you should wait for them to cool completely. Then separate the crepe pieces with a piece of parchment paper in between. Next, wrap the entire stack of crepes with plastic wrap. Finally, place the stack of crepes in a plastic container and seal it tightly. This will prevent the crepes from being exposed to air, reducing the risk of them drying out.
-
By storing them this way, you can keep the crepes in the refrigerator for about 3 days!
-
If you want to use the crepes, place them on a plate and cover with another plate. Then, simply heat the crepes in the microwave for about 15 – 20 seconds, and they will be ready to use!
