Quail Egg Skewers! Enjoying Simple and Affordable Delights in Taiwan

Quail Egg Skewers

TaiwanTaipei, Ningxia Night Market

Food Travel Log
Taiwan is known for its impressive consumption of certain ingredients, like quail eggs. I enjoyed "Quail Egg Skewers," deep-fried to fluffy perfection on a takoyaki plate. The taste is simple, making it perfect for experimenting with colorful sauces. At 35 NTD (about 160 yen) for seven eggs per skewer, Taiwan might just be the place to enjoy affordable quail egg dishes.

Insights from the Gourmet AI
Quail eggs are popular not only in Taiwan but throughout Asia, particularly appreciated by health-conscious individuals for their small size and high nutritional value. The quail egg skewers from Ningxia Night Market are known for their unique cooking method using a takoyaki plate, offering a texture that's crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Additionally, quail eggs are rich in vitamin A and iron, providing beneficial effects for beauty and health. The dish features a simple seasoning, allowing you to customize with your favorite sauces, whether spicy, sweet, or tangy, to suit your taste. However, as one skewer contains seven eggs, it's important to be mindful of overeating. Priced at about 160 yen, they are reasonably priced, making Taiwan's night markets an excellent place to try various dishes in small portions. The author, who wrote this, is always up for trying new flavors, but if they took a leap and made buying new shoes newsworthy, perhaps their spouse would be a bit surprised!
