   Fry the salted duck egg until fragrant, letting it develop a slightly charred, appealing aroma.
   ▶ ≈0:00
2. 2
   Release the oil from the salted egg yolk and let it combine with the oil in the pan — keep the heat low so the yolk doesn't burn.
   ▶ ≈0:13
3. 3
   Add the pork and stir-fry to remove any raw pork smell and boost the overall aroma.
   ▶ ≈0:19
4. 4
   Pour in water and bring to a boil, letting the broth absorb all the fragrant flavors.
   ▶ ≈0:26
5. 5
   Stir in the soy milk to give the soup a rich, creamy texture.
   ▶ ≈0:26
6. 6
   Skip beating in egg to form egg ribbons — the salted egg's aroma is already so strong that thickening the soup for egg ribbons isn't necessary.
