[quote=GUEST65231,460320]I tried one today for the first time. It was ok. Just freshly peeled it has very strong odor of ammonia. The yolk is creamy and delicious with great texture and the slight sulfur taste makes it very umami. I will try next time with soy and pickled ginger. I have read about how they are made, no horses. Only quicklime and salt and clay. They are desiccated and the lime raises the pH so high it preserves them and kills off the bacteria, so you can eat them without cooking later. I am a cook so perhaps more adventurous than other. There is nothing gross about how they are made. Their appearance scares some people from trying them.[/quote]
