Salted Eggs In Clay ( Itlog na Maalat )

Mix 12 cups of clay and 12 cups of salt, adding water gradually until well blended.
Apply a generous portion of this mixture at the base of a palayok (clay pot).
Coat each of 13 duck eggs with the mixture. Arrange in layers and allow from 1 to 2 inches

space in between to prevent breakage. Cover with extra mixture and store.

Try an egg after 15 days. If not salty enough, extend storing period.
When ready, boil egg for 5 minutes, and let stand 10 more minutes. Color eggs, if desired.
