Anyone tried salted eggs ?
A chap on another forum does this to quail eggs and likes the result.

Put some clean undamaged eggs in a strong brine solution  with a weight to  hold them under the surface, leave for a month then hardboil as usual . They come out ready salted !
Could be handy for saving surplus eggs for picnics or parties !

I started doing this a couple of years ago when I worked with some women from the Philipines. Salted duck eggs are a delicacy. As you say, put the freshest, clean, raw eggs in a saturated brine and leave for between a week and a couple of months. When ready hard boil. They go from mildly salted to completely different. When lightly salted they are lovely and tasty sliced in salads.  When heavily salted the whites are too salty to eat but the yolks become dense, waxy and very tasty.

certainly a way of keeping eggs a bit longer. Love them.

Sounds good, i think i will give it a go with half a dozen and try at weekly intervals !

Thanks Kate !
