Every bite of that sweet warm bread gives you small explosions of saltiness from the salted duck eggs and cheese, it’s the same addictive sensation you get from salted caramel or chocolates with sea salt. For most this flavour might turn them away but don’t judge it until you had tried them. Salted Duck Eggs might sound weird but during that last couple of years this ingredient has been used in many dishes that you had ever imagined, like potato chips, fish skin, ice cream, French toast, Burgers, waffles, Doughnuts, churros and many more. People actually love them and crave for them, in fact that potato chip and fish skin went really viral in South East Asian up until now there is a shortage of supply and people are queuing for it just to grab one. There is only one reason for its success, it is simply delicious.
