Yum ovary with the unfertilized egg is my favorite

I like to think of myself as pretty open to trying new foods, but so far the reproductive organs are a hard nope.

For context (from the webz):
Tamahimo eggs (たまひも), kinkan (キンカン) or chochin (lantern/ 提灯) eggs. These eggs are the eggs that are harvested from the hen when the hen is slaughtered. This means that they have yet to be fertilised and are at various stages of development. Those further along the developmental pathway would have egg white and an almost fully formed egg shell, while eggs at an earlier part of the pathway are basically just egg yolks alone, growing from small sizes initially all the way to a full sized yolk. These yet to be fully develop eggs also do not have an egg white attached to them, and are basically egg yolks with a firm layer around them. This means that they can be handled and pressed without bursting, unlike typical egg yolks which break easily. The taste of these eggs are like that of a concentrated duck egg yolk, with a much richer and sweeter mouth feel and bright orange colour compared to conventional egg yolks.
