Hello everyone
Recently had a friend ask me to do a review
He wants to eat ostrich egg
So I bought some to try how it is different from normal eggs
I bought two of them
The price is not cheap
It's about 110 yuan each
And each egg is about three jins (1.5 kg)
Now I will crack it open
Come on, Yang Han, help me out here
Yes
Cook one first
Wow
It's got more than one layer of this white film
Two layers
It's very shaky inside
I never tried ostrich eggs before
First time
Crack the egg first
Ohhh
It's a full bowl
Look at this big bowl of it
Let me smell it and see how it feels
A little fishy
It's just like an normal chicken egg
Let me have a look at the yolk
The yolk looks like this
Take a look
We will make
Two dishes out of it
One is Stir-Fried
Stir-fry with those
Then you make another steamed egg
This egg yolk is bigger than my fist
A huge yolk
Give half of the yolk to you
Okay, you take this to steam
Okay
First time I've ever tried this
This friend of mine he said he looked it up on the internet
This ostrich egg
Have higher protein than chicken egg
But it is more expensive than chicken eggs
About five times more expensive
Compared to regular chicken eggs
After we tried this, if it's good
I will make it for Uncle to eat
He may not even have seen an ostrich egg
For sure, never try it
Next some salt
Add a pinch of white peppercorn powder
Mix it up
This ostrich egg feels thin when you stir it up
Do I have more yolk or do you have more yolk?
I think the yolk is about the same
My egg feels thin
For the steamed, need less water. 1:1 ratio is enough
Okay, that's good
Okay, that's fine
We'll use these two to stir-fry
Try the taste
You start steaming first
Yes
Your steaming takes longer time than my stir-frying
Get the egg in
Save some for another pan-fried
Oops
How did this egg get like this?
I think the moisture in this egg is very high
It's even sticking to the wok
Add some chopped scallions
Stir Fry
Okay
Ready for serving
This egg is very fluffy, you see?
Yes
It feels like there's water in it when it's frying
But it's very tender
Yes
This ostrich egg compared to chicken eggs
It's less likely to get burnt
It feels like you add some starch water to egg mixture to get it tender
How long does the steamed one to be ready?
One more minute
Okay, I'll do another pan-fry
Okay
After this egg is in the wok
It becomes bubbly on the edge
Feels strange
add some chopped scallions
Good
Serve
You see
This egg
Doesn't look like an egg to me anymore
Yang Han, come and see
It's a bit like a cake
It doesn't look like an egg
It's a cake
Try it and see how it is
Eat
I'll flip it over and look at the other side
Let me show you
There's that scallion
How about this side?
The texture
This side with some crispy bits is similar to chicken egg
The other side got honeycombs in it, like a cake
Your steamed egg custard, bring it over here
This side is thinner so it's cooked
This thicker side is not ready
It doesn't matter. Bring me a spoon and I'll try the cooked side
Okay
This is a small test
The details
I think it's better than other steamed eggs
Softer and tender in texture
More pure
hmm
It looks a bit rough on the surface
But it is very tender in the mouth
It has a bit of a creamy taste
This one
Scrambled and fried is more yellow (compared to steamed egg)
The colour looks better
The steamed egg
It looks rough but is actually very tender
The steamed chicken egg is different
It looks very smooth
If it is twice as expensive as an egg, I think it is reasonable
Twice as expensive is more sensible
But it's actually five times more expensive
In terms of value for money, it's probably better to buy chicken eggs
This is just for the sake of trying new food
Paying three times more for newness
Okay there are three ways for cooking eggs
Just to recap
For this ostrich egg
If you have six or seven people in your family, seven or eight more
It's no problem at all to eat one at a time
But don't make just make one dish at a time
You see here
You can get very bored if just eat one kind of it
Also it's such a big one
You can't just cook one dish in a go
My favorite of the three is still stir-fried (scrambled)
You can scramble it very tender
And If there are children and elderly people in the house
It is good for steaming too
And if you prefer a better looking one
You can pan-fry it into a round pancake
It looks a bit better when you do it this way
It's also have a bit of crispy texture
Overall would you rather eat ostrich eggs or chicken eggs?
Make your own comparison
Anyway, it's expensive
You probably can't eat it all at once
It's hard to keep fresh after cracking
If there are many people who want to try a new food
That's good
Texture is a bit better than chicken eggs
A little more fragrant
A little more tender
When you fry them, it won't be burned even with a higher heat
Okay
That's it for this video
Bye-bye
