Smoked egg is a food that involves the smoking of eggs and fish eggs.[1][2] Smoked eggs can be prepared with hard boiled eggs that are then smoked,[3][4] or by smoking uncooked eggs in their shells.[5] Additionally, smoked egg has been defined as a type of hors d'oeuvre of hard boiled eggs that are shelled, marinated and then smoked.[6]

Smoked eggs can be made into smoked egg pâté, which is a dish in Jewish cuisine.[7][8] Additional dishes and foods prepared from smoked eggs are egg salad, vinaigrette dressing and dips[9][10][11][12] Some versions of niçoise salad use a smoked egg foam as an ingredient.[13] Purées prepared with smoked egg have been used to enhance the flavor of various dishes.[14][15]

Some caviars that are sometimes smoked include cod roe, which is common in Norway, mullet roe and sturgeon roe.[2][16] Another product is smoked-egg liquor, which can be derived from raw frozen salmon roe.[17]

In Chinese cuisine

In China, Technology has been developed to mass-produce smoked eggs.[18] For example, the Xiyang Foodstuff Co. has manufactured equipment that annually processes 4.8 million smoked eggs.[1]

In China, smoked egg sausages have been developed.[19]

Similar dishes

Tea-smoked eggs are a type that are produced and consumed in China and other areas of the world.[20][21] This food does not involve smoking. Rather, hard boiled eggs are cracked and cooked in various teas and spices.[21]
