Salted Egg Yolk – A Unique Highlight in Vietnamese Cuisine

With its creamy, savory flavor, salted egg yolk is believed to have originated in Chinese cuisine and has since been creatively reimagined in Vietnamese dishes—ranging from mooncakes and steamed buns to fried rice and seafood. When paired with prawns, the contrast between the natural sweetness of the shrimp and the richness of salted egg yolk creates a delightful balance that excites both the taste buds and the eyes.

 

The Secret Behind Delight’s Signature Salted Egg Yolk Prawns

 

Only the freshest ingredients

At Delight Restaurant, only the finest live prawns are selected - firm, sweet, and still in shell. Salted eggs are carefully chosen and steamed to just the right doneness to preserve their creamy texture without becoming overly salty.

 

The salted egg yolk sauce – the soul of the dish

The golden salted egg yolks are mashed and blended with light cheese, unsalted butter, and a touch of chef’s special seasoning. The result is a silky, golden sauce that’s rich yet well-balanced - aromatic, indulgent, and never overwhelming.

A Fusion Twist in Preparation

The prawns are lightly prepared and quickly deep-fried in hot oil to ensure a crispy exterior while keeping the inside tender and juicy. Instead of pre-mixing the sauce, our chefs serve the salted egg yolk sauce in a small side bowl—allowing guests to customize the flavor to their liking. This small detail reflects the care and elegance behind every dish.
