What is the shelf life of salted duck eggs

Eating duck eggs is a very traditional food custom, because duck eggs taste very delicious, and duck eggs have better texture, higher density, and higher nutritional value, so they are deeply loved by people. However, due to the strong fishy smell of duck eggs, people often make salted duck eggs to eat them. But how long is the shelf life of salted duck eggs? Let’s take a look at the explanation below, I hope everyone can understand it.

The shelf life of salted duck eggs depends on the storage conditions. If you make salted duck eggs at home, they can be stored for about 9 months at room temperature (if stored at room temperature in summer, the shelf life will be shorter, usually about three months). If they are refrigerated, they can be stored for 12 months.

If you buy vacuum-packed salted duck eggs in a supermarket, they will generally last for about three months. The specific shelf life can be found in the product instructions.

How long is the shelf life of salted duck eggs? How to store salted duck eggs for a long time

If the cooked salted duck eggs are not contaminated after cooking (that is, they are put into a fresh-keeping bag and sealed while cooked), they can be kept for about 20 days below 10 degrees Celsius, about 10 days below 20 degrees, and only about 5 days at close to 30 degrees and can still be eaten without re-cooking. If it is refrigerated at 0-2 degrees, it can be kept for about 60 days. If it has been cut, it can only be kept for four or five days at most and must be eaten as soon as possible, otherwise it will go bad.

How to save:

1. If it is hot in summer, you can store it in the refrigerator. Be careful not to freeze it, as frozen duck eggs are not tasty. Generally, it can be placed in the upper freezer compartment of the refrigerator.

2. If it is cold in winter, you can put the cooked duck eggs in a dry and ventilated place. Be careful not to place it in direct sunlight, it is best to choose a cool place. For example, on top of kitchen cabinets, under stairs, etc.

3. For salted eggs pickled in salt water, they should not be soaked in the pickling jar for a long time before being cooked. Take out the raw salted eggs, cook them and dry them, then put them back into the brine and take them out when you want to eat them. This will ensure that the cooked salted eggs will not deteriorate after being stored for a long time, and will not make the duck eggs more salty as time goes by.
