How do I choose balut for delivery?

Shop balut, the fertilized duck egg enjoyed in Filipino and Vietnamese cooking. Compare the balut packs below and check whether each item is raw or prepared before ordering. Enter your ZIP code to see available products, delivery dates and any applicable free-delivery minimum.

Balut is a fertilized duck egg incubated for about two to three weeks, then cooked and eaten from the shell. It is a popular street food in the Philippines and is also eaten in Vietnam, where it is called hột vịt lộn.

What does balut taste like?

Balut tastes rich and savory, like a hard-boiled egg with a deeper, broth-like flavor, and has a mix of soft yolk, tender white, and a firmer center. Many people season it with salt or spiced vinegar.

How do you eat balut?

Crack the wider end of the shell, sip the warm broth, then peel and eat the contents with salt, spiced vinegar with garlic and chili, or a splash of hot sauce. It is eaten warm, straight after cooking.

How do you cook balut?

Balut is traditionally boiled or steamed for about 20 to 30 minutes until fully cooked, then eaten warm. Check the package, because raw fertilized eggs must be cooked thoroughly.

What is the difference between balut and penoy?

Balut is a fertilized duck egg with a developing embryo, while penoy is an unfertilized duck egg that is boiled and eaten like a regular hard-boiled egg.

Is balut the same as salted duck egg?

No. Balut is a fertilized duck egg eaten warm, while salted duck eggs are brined or cured eggs with a salty, firm yolk, often eaten with congee or used in cooking.

How should I store balut?

Follow the storage instructions on the package, keep balut refrigerated until cooking if it is a raw fertilized egg, and eat cooked balut warm and promptly.
