The internet has repeatedly exposed us to a wide range of interesting culinary experiments. There is no shortage of bizarre food combinations on social media, ranging from omelette chowmein and phuchka chops to dahi maggi, bhindi samosa, and Maaza pani puri. The internet wasn’t shy about creating new experiments, even though many of these have left us perplexed. Introducing the newest culinary concoction to hit the scene: “salted egg ice cream.” Content creator Calvin Lee, who goes by the handle “foodmakescalhappy,” posted a video on Instagram showing how to make it.
The video opens with the text, “Let’s try salted egg ice cream!”. The video shows a bowl with three scoops of ice cream. Next, Calvin Lee can be seen placing a boiled duck egg sliced in two atop it. Then he sprinkles a spoonful of “salted egg powder” on it. The video shows him smashing the eggs along with the ice cream scoops, in a bid to mix it all well. The text on the clip reads, “Add salted egg and salted egg powder to the ice cream and mix.” After mixing it all properly, he states, “I got a super good feeling about this! Let’s try!” The clip shows him taking a big bite. How was it? In the caption, he revealed, “OMG, Super yassssss!” The video concluded with Calvin saying, “What a lovely rich, sweet and salty ice cream packed with salted egg flavour. 1000% must try!”
Sharing the video, Calvin Lee candidly wrote, “Salted Egg Ice Cream… Looks like Egg Mayo, but tasted much much better!”
