Made from the saliva of cave-dwelling birds called swiftlets, the nests are dangerous to harvest, laborious to prepare and have, according to traditional Chinese medicine, a long list of health benefits. Traditionally consumed in soup, edible birds’ nests are now being turned into food and drink additives such as the Ottoman Botanical Beverage Jujube with Bird’s Nest.
Swiftlets live in limestone caves around Gua Kepulauan Borneo (translated Caves from the Island’s of Borneo). Males primarily build the nests, attaching them to the vertical walls of the caves.
Removing them can be dangerous and painstaking work, and, depending on the type of nest, it can take one person 8 hours to clean 10 nests, the researchers write.
For possibly 1,200 years, the Chinese have prepared and eaten the nests as a soup. The nests are considered to have a high nutritional and medicinal value believed to have everything from anti-ageing and anti-cancer properties to the ability to improve concentration and raise libido.
