So i was the only white guy at TnT today (buying buns.. mmm bbq pork), and was watching this lady infront of me buy like 10x 2 foot long lettuce stalks..

Wtf are these used for? Anything good?

You peel/cut the skin off then slice them up and stir fry them like any other veggies. I'll bring some in next time we buy some for you to try along with some pig stomach and chicken feet

[Alterac]

Thanks Ray.. lol.

I figured they were used for stirfry's and such.

Btw, wtf are those purple eggs?

[topmade]

Those are thousand year old eggs and I don't mind them. Most commonly made with porridge, but there are dishes you can make with them as well. If you want to try, I can bring some in

[Alterac]

well there is alot of nifty shit in there..

I just need an asian guide next time I go to prevent me from buying gross shit.

[sdiep]

Oh man, I hate those thousand year old eggs/century eggs.

I like those salted duck eggs though. -lol-

Must be a Chinese thing cause I dont particulary like them although it does have a interesting chewy jello like texture but I do like the pieces of congealed blood in congee



Anyone like eating the duck embryos?Only part I like is the yolk, the rest, with the feathers and bones =

[Alterac]

Gross, I can't eat either of those. Tried it, can't do it...

Alterac asked me earlier on msn what the purple eggs where, I told him i'm not that kind of asian.

Oh, I remember having those duck embryos.
They weren't super tasty or anything... -lol-
