Brilio.net - Boiled eggs are one of the healthy and delicious egg dishes. According to webm.com, boiled eggs are a very good source of lean protein for the body. Low in calories, boiled eggs are often chosen as a diet menu, such as mixed salads, whole wheat bread, or oatmeal. However, boiled eggs sometimes still leave a fairly strong fishy smell, especially if using duck eggs or chicken eggs from farms. This type of egg has a high protein or amino acid content, so it smells more fishy.

No need to worry, there is an easy trick to avoid the fishy smell after boiling eggs. This trick was shared by a YouTube user named Dessy Marhandrie. In addition to eliminating the fishy smell, this trick also makes eggs not easily stale.

As reported by BrilioFood from YouTube Dessy Marhandrie on Monday (4/11), there are two kitchen ingredients that need to be added when boiling eggs , namely salt and vinegar. But first, prepare eggs that are already at room temperature. Do not boil eggs that are still cold or have just been taken out of the refrigerator so that they do not crack easily when boiled.

After that, put the eggs in the pan. Add one tablespoon of fine salt to boil 10 eggs. The addition of salt is not to make the eggs salty. But so that the hot temperature of the boiled water remains stable later. After that, pour 1/2 tablespoon of vinegar.

"This makes eggs last for several days and doesn't smell fishy," said YouTube Dessy Marhandrie.

Finally, pour enough water until all the eggs are submerged. Then boil the eggs for a few minutes. This boiling time can be adjusted to the desired level of egg maturity. However, if you want the eggs to last longer without a fishy smell, you should boil them until the yolk is completely cooked. Because the yolk is the most fishy part.

The boiled eggs can be directly put into a bowl. To peel them, you can shake the bowl. That way, the eggshell will be looser and can be pulled off immediately. The resulting eggs are also smoother. This is different from eggs that are only boiled with plain water. In addition to being more difficult to peel, the egg smells fishy, even though the yolk is cooked.
