Cantonese Preserved Duck Egg Congee (Pi Dan Zhou)
Guangdong Province — Cantonese breakfast tradition
The benchmark Cantonese congee: pi dan shou rou zhou — century egg and minced pork congee. Century eggs (pi dan) are cut into pieces and stirred in at the last moment along with minced pork that has been marinated in soy and sesame oil. The eggs bleed inky purple colour through the congee, the whites are translucent with black tea aroma, and the yolk is creamy-soft.
