About Kwek kwek quail egg
Kwek Kwek is a popular Filipino street food featuring hard-boiled quail eggs coated in an orange-colored batter and deep-fried to crispy perfection. Its vibrant hue, traditionally achieved with annatto seeds, adds to its eye-catching appeal. Native to the Philippines, this snack is typically served with a tangy vinegar-based dipping sauce or spiced-up sweet sauce. Quail eggs are rich in protein, vitamins A and B12, and choline, supporting brain and cell health. However, the deep-fried batter significantly increases its calorie and fat content, making Kwek Kwek more of an indulgent treat than a daily staple. Consuming it in moderation can allow you to enjoy its savory taste while still maintaining nutritional balance. Popular at roadside stalls and gatherings, it’s a flavorful representation of Filipino cuisine.
