Training on Salted Egg Production Utilizing Local Potential in Cibodas Village, Tanara Subdistrict, Serang, Banten

One of the objectives of this research activity is to increase the potential contained in micro business activities in the community in one of the villages in Pandeglang district, Banten. Lack of knowledge and skills in keeping up with the times makes most business actors unable to compete in potential markets. Based on this, socialization activities and product packaging training were carried out for business actors who use local potential in Banten, especially in Pandeglang Regency, Curugciung Village to be precise. The results of the research show that the development of packaging knowledge and skills by business actors utilizing local potential is increasing rapidly. Apart from being a challenge for the business world, it is also a huge opportunity and potential for improving the economy and business. Business actors must be able to keep up with changing trends by utilizing information technology to encourage business activities while increasing competitiveness .

Result and Discussion
Community Service Activity on the Theme of Utilizing Local Potential in Cibodas Village is conducted in three (3) stages, with the following outcomes: Step 1 In the initial phase of the community service implementation, researchers along with practitioners provide basic knowledge related to local potential commodities available and can be developed by the local community.This socialization aims to instill understanding among the community in managing the resources available in the village to maximize the productivity of economic activities.A total of 40 participants received the material delivered face-to-face and interactively to ensure that participants fully understand the essence and processes needed to utilize the local potential available in the village.Step 2 In this stage, after the participants have received material related to the basic understanding of utilizing local potential, the organizers provide a detailed presentation on the process of making salted eggs as a product derived from local egg and rice husk waste utilization.This includes the preparation of tools and materials, the eggmaking process, and presenting the product from raw materials to the finished edible product.
The eggs are soaked for 2 minutes, and any eggs that float are discarded.The eggs are then gently cleaned with sandpaper, and a mixture of rice husk ash, salt, and water is prepared until it forms a paste.The eggs are coated with the ash paste until it forms a 3 cm thick layer.The eggs are placed in a bucket, sprinkled with enough dry rice husk ash, and covered.They are left to sit for 14 days.After this period, the eggs are cleaned from the ash paste and either boiled or steamed over low heat for 1 hour.The Salted Eggs are then ready for consumption or sale, with a shelf life of 8-10 days at room temperature and 2-4 weeks in the refrigerator (Widodo, 2023).Participants can directly engage in the training process to maximize their ability to implement the knowledge gained in utilizing local potential in the future.https://equatorscience.com/index.php/move
