Century egg tofu and century egg & pork rice porridge are the two best known examples of cooking with century eggs. I don't think that people know how to prepare them well in Japan but they're very delicious.

Different people prefer different porridge consistencies so please adjust the timings and amount of water to your taste. I didn't use any salt this time. Depending on the amount of water and rice you can add some salt if you feel that there isn't enough. Recipe by Kajinnodanna

Wash the rice and add it to a saucepan with 600 ml water. You can also use pre-cooked rice.
