Cooking With Salt Cured Egg Yolks
Salted egg yolks are yolks that’ve been cured in salt, which solidifies them and offers a whole new way to incorporate eggs into your dishes. These yolks can be grated, sliced or even mashed to add a rich garnish and pop of golden colour to your recipes.
While you can make your own salted egg yolks relatively easily, the curing process can take a while. The recipe below includes ready-to-use cured yolks, which you can find at your local Asian supermarket – or right here at Oriental Mart!
Golden Squid Ingredients
- 2 frozen squid tubes
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp Sichuan pepper powder
- 2 tbsp potato flour
For the salted egg yolk seasoning:
- 2 salted egg yolks, mashed
- 2 tbsp butter
- ½ onion, chopped finely
- 3 spring onions, chopped finely
- 3 bird eye chillies
- 1 tbsp salted egg yolk sauce
How to Make Golden Squid
- Defrost the squid overnight. Drain the excess water and use some kitchen towel to absorb any extra liquid.
- Season with salt and Sichuan pepper, then toss in the potato flour.
- Have a pan of oil ready – you’ll know it’s hot enough when you insert a chopstick and see bubbles around it.
- Deep fry the squid for a minute.
For the salted egg yolk seasoning:
- Heat a non-stick pan and add some butter.
- Add in all the seasoning ingredients.
- Stir fry for a few minutes until it’s fragrant.
- Add the fried squid and serve it with salted egg yolk mayo for an extra moreish, umami flavour.
