There are some things that are cheap in Korea that are considered delicacies in other parts of the world. One of those is quail eggs. People don't think anything of them in Korea. You can get them raw next to the chicken eggs. But even better, you can get them already cooked and peeled in the refrigerator section. That makes things much easier when making this recipe.

Normally, I would have garnished them with something like gochugaru or chiffonade sesame leaves. But the baby was also eating these. She can handle a little bit of spice but not much. These were gone in fifteen minutes.
It’s the same here in Thailand. You can get quail eggs everywhere even on the Sizzler salad bar and I absolutely LOVE them
Will have to try these as I’m already a deviled egg fanatic 🙂
Well I do agree that we can take quail eggs from everywhere but we are not sure about its quality and how they prepare it . So the best way is to make it at home because it would also free from germs and all would agree that we can not make compromise on health . Furthermore, I also like the recipe but can be commented over it in good manner after try it .
