Pickled eggs, especially pickled quail eggs are very popular in the south. When I was a young, the meat counter at Mom-and-Pop markets always had a gallon jar of pickled quail eggs with a set of tongs next to it. While waiting for an order, customers would reach in and grab an egg or two.

My dad would make salted eggs.
Just raw eggs, packed in salt.
After a couple of weeks, 1 or 2 would be boiled and used as a side dish for rice based meal.
Normally that would have been done with duck eggs, but I've never had it like that

Never heard of those. Have to try if the price of eggs goes down.
