SILKIE CHICKEN

Overview

Check out the Silkie chicken, once considered part of the recipe for longevity. It lays only about one egg a week, which can sell for the high price of 6 dollars a pop.

She also tries some fresh Silkie eggs for the first time. Feast your eyes on French and Chinese dishes using the chicken's nutritious black meat.
