Question Birds nest Soup - 05-29-2007, 08:31 PM

I was watching this thing on the Travel channel call Bizarre foods, and it was on asia, and there was this thing called birds nest soup, and I was wondering if it was any good. Cause they like use to spit from the bird that was in the nest, and I like hiding behind the couch when I watch him taste. It made me shiver, but I realized i don't even know what it taste like SO anyone know how it taste

swallow's spit. chinese dish, that it has healthy qualities to it. Usually eaten with something sweet such as boiled yellow sugar cane crystals. it tastes quite nice actually.

it's really rare and sometimes, like most asian food you can get fakes. Because it is so healthy and nutritious and it is rare, it is very expensive

I heard about Bird Nest soup on another forum. I was shocked at first, but then I realised that it isn't that gross. There are many, many more disgusting things to eat than that...at least I'm pretty sure...

I heard that Bird Nest soup is good for the skin, especially in females. If anyone can back this theory up, I'd like to know if it is true.

Bird nest, despite it's name, is no nest. The name comes from the overall appearence, the finish product, that resembles a nest. Hence, they are called bird nest.
It is so expensive that men buys to impress upon thier wives and in-laws. In order to maintain the vigour on the complexion of their skin, many well-to-do Asians take them either once or twice a week, boiled in broth as a sweet dessert.
It comes in a variety of grades, right down to fake ones.
