Balut(6 of 11)

Balut is dish made of duck, but with a twist. In Philippines, they prefer to eat the duck’s eggs than its meat. The chefs make a hole in the egg and inside the egg is a grown embryo.

To eat balut, you need to drink the liquid from it, break the shell, and eat the baby duckling. Often times, the egg is eaten when it is 17 days old.

However, some people eat it when it is 21 days old, as by then, the duckling has developed feathers and beak.
