Tiger Skin Eggs or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Cooked Yolks

[@ChineseCookingDemystified]

Hey guys, a few notes: 1. Over on the Patreon, someone made the very good point that it seemed to be a bit of a tease going through this whole song and dance discussing yolk texture and not actually... showing the inside of a Tiger Skin egg. Definitely an oversight on my part. Here's what it looks like - though again, I know it ain't exactly Instagram-worthy: i.imgur.com/ayFTrBd.jpg 2. In my opinion though, the way to eat Tiger Skin Eggs is to plop the whole thing in your mouth. I uh... have a big mouth though (in all the senses of the word), so another cool approach is to do the same thing with quail eggs. 3. Do not use a stick (stainless steel) saucepan for this. I know I only briefly said "... in a non-stick saucepan ..." in the video, when perhaps I should've been more emphatic. Use non-stick, cast iron, or carbon steel. Stainless steel will give you a mess. Made the mistake before myself! 4. Oh, also... peel your eggs. I drastically shortening our 'egg boiling' discussion because I figured that y'all probably knew how to boil an egg, but I know that I didn't provide a visual at least for the peeling, which was another oversight. Sorry about that. 5. If you're looking to get creative with your eggs, cooking/simmering them for ~4-15 minutes seems about right in my personal experience. Shorter than that, and the fried skin starts to be a touch on the 'tough' side; longer, and the egg begins to get slightly overcooked. 6. Regarding popping - yes, these pop a bit. It's not the scariest thing ever (deep frying blanched chicken feet is the scariest thing lol), but it's a variable to know going into it. Steph likes using a lid as a 'shield' when frying these, which can be a nice approach. 7. We did try to make a 'jammy' version of this using 5-6 minute eggs. The end result? The eggs sagged and leaked when frying, and even the still-intact ones didn't really seem to have any superior of a texture to our taste buds. Someone over on the Patreon popped the eggs in the freezer for 15 minutes and (IIRC) did a 7 minute egg from a hot start (with an ice bath after), to some success - though it was only one egg. If jamminess is non-negotiable for you though, that's one route you could potentially go :)

[@b9y]

Did someone legit ask if it was peeled?

[@adedow1333]

Question on #4: is that 4-15? Seems like a wider range then you meant. 4-5 maybe?

[@ChineseCookingDemystified]

@@adedow1333 Haha nah that's the range that I meant :) I based it off the recipes we did here, where in the Sichuan homestyle recipe we cooked it for about ~4 minutes more in all, which felt like a pretty good low end. The red-braised ones (together with my messing around with them in a chili) were 10-15 minutes, and came out great. There was one time during testing where I was playing around with leftovers, tossed them in a braise for 45 minutes and - while fine - they felt a little on the overcooked side to me.

Yeah! The texture of the skin ends up similar to that of deep fried tofu. I.e. it's a little hard compared to a starch coating, but is *fantastic* for absorbing other flavors.

[@dgwdgw]

The soft boiled egg trend makes me really mad, I don't have anything against people who like runny yolks, but a lot of people act like that's the "right way" to cook eggs, and hard yolks are bad and a waste of eggs. I think that's mostly because when you overcook an egg the yolk develops a dark ring(sulphur ring) around it, and also gets pale and tasteless, but you can have a hard boiled egg that doesn't have the sulphur ring and that's still soft and tasty, I dislike runny yolks so i always make hard boiled eggs, i cook them for about 11 minutes and they look beautiful and don't taste or smell like raw egg like runny yolks often do

[@darkjemdude]

This is just random guessing but a lot of American fried foods are batter fried where the host is to get a thick layer of breading and fat/grease over whatever is underneath. The frying here is more akin to tempura where the goal is to get the skin crispy. Plus I don't think generally people would think to braise after they crisped.

Vietnamese have been doing fried egg in spicy fish sauce. Personally do not prefer the texture of overcooked/fried egg white. So I make my jammy egg and marinade it in a sweet soy sauce marinade for one night. Then warm gently and eat with hot rice and sesame oil with my jammy jammy yolks.

Mix equal parts soy sauce, water and brown sugar (or whatever sugar you like). 1/2 cup each ingredient per 6-8 eggs. Add whatever herb or aromatics you like such as scallions, cilantro ginger garlic etc etc(except oily stuff save that for serving). You can keep it basic and it is still good. My SO prefers it basic with no aromatics and some chili oil or sate oil to serve with hot rice.

In the Philippines, we have a street food that we call "Kwek-kwek".

[@XDarkPhoenixxX]

Just a tip for anyone like myself. At 4:38 before adding the thickening agent, take out the eggs so you can easily remove the whole spices with a small sieve spoon. Put the eggs back in and continue. Accidently biting into a whole spice that is in a sauce (or curry or anything) is the easiest way to ruin a meal for me.

Whenever I fry eggs I always just freeze them. Once the freeze you can just peel the shell. At that point once you fry you can have both a gummy yolk and the fried egg skin. (I mainly use this for scotch eggs)

Can you elaborate more? When do you freeze before or after you cook the eggs?

@@kevincooksit before, frozen eggs keep for far longer before going bad, and they become relatively solid. As a result, you can bread and fry it really quick, the white gets firm and the yolk is almost like those ramen eggs

I've had conventional tea eggs. The stuff that has a sulfur ring around it since it's been boiling for a long time. Never really bothered by it. Then all the hub bub about how having a sulfur ring around a boiled egg was akin to the ultimate sin in history. Mind you, there are snack products, in literal packaging even, of eggs that are cooked to the point where the whites are almost chewy-like with intense flavor all around. Quick cooked jammy eggs are great. Hell, runny yolk on rice is one of those pure bliss experiences. But hard cooked eggs with proper preparation isn't satan incarnate, people.
