mmmmmmmm…… Just like grandma used to make.
A few weekends ago one of the silly things i said came back to haunt me. I boasted to Derrick and Jaeca that if Jaeca would find and buy a Balut Egg then I’d give it a try. For those of you that don’t know what one of these bad boys are here’s the wikipedia page. Basically Balut is a fertalized duck embryeo. Its eaten in the Philippines and Vietnam.
The taste wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, kinda like chicken gizzard or giblets cooked when you’re making gravy for Thanksgiving.. Its more of a visual thing to get over. I was pretty full already since I didn’t have much notice when they brought the egg by. Note the little duck guy wasn’t that bad. The real nasty part is the yoke. It seems like a ready made heart attack.
So if you ever think of eating one it isn’t so bad. Give it a try 🙂
