chinese dinner

A wonderful chinese dinner cooked by a friends, friends girl friend from Hong Kong. One if the dishes (top left) contains Chinese black eggs, or "Century Egg". It is a Chinese cuisine ingredient made by preserving duck, chicken or quail eggs, buy burying them in a mixture of clay, ash, salt, lime (some say Horse Urine) and rice hull for several months. According to a persistent myth, century eggs are, or once were, prepared by soaking eggs in horse urine. The myth may arise from the pungent odor of ammonia given off by century eggs, which is reminiscent of urine.
