BIRD NEST 101

HANDLING

Certain bird nest brands come with a sealed vacuum bag
 inside the packaging. Take the vacuum bag out from the box and open it.
 Once you've opened the vacuum bag, DO NOT put the bird nests back
 inside the bag, as this 
will make the nests turn bad.

DRY

Once you’ve opened up the vacuum bag,
 spread it out at room temperature. Avoid
 direct sunlight. 
And let it dry until the nests are dried.
 (usually around 1~2 days). The tray inside the vacuum bag (available in certain brands) makes a
 great temporary place to spread out the
 bird nests.


STORAGE

After the bird nests are completely dried,
 feel free to store it however you choose.
 But DO NOT put it back inside the 
packaging box.

COLOR

The real, pure bird nest color is not real white, but grayish or yellowish. If there is a white color bird nest in the market, find the one that is thin and pretty clean because a harvester picks the bird nest while it is still young. Thus, be careful to select the real white color one. Some well-knows brands, because they want to sell their products in a big quantity, they pay less attention to the quality.

IMMERSE

When bird nest is immersed in the water for about 1-1.5 hour, it should not break up into small pieces, but it will be shredded in a long shape. And the water will remains clear.

SMELL

When bird nest is cooked for about 40-45 minutes, it expands and becomes soft. However, the smell still remains (bird nest genuine smells).
