If you have elders or kids at home, you should definitely learn this! πππ 1β£ The ratio of eggs to water should be between 1:1 and 1:1.5. This proportion will give the perfect smooth and tender texture. If there's too much water, the custard won't set; if there's too little water, it will become too firm. 2β£ Be sure to strain the beaten egg mixture. 3β£ When steaming, cover with a plate, or use food-grade cling film or aluminum foil to cover the egg mixture, but make sure to poke a few holes in the surface with a toothpick.
Ingredients
Steps
Crack three eggs into a bowl.
Add a spoonful of salt. The spoon in the picture indicates 5g.
Add warm water (not too hot to touch).
Mix well.
Strain the beaten egg mixture. Straining ensures the steamed egg custard will be as smooth as a mirror.
Boil water in a steamer and place in the egg mixture.
Cover the egg mixture with a plate. This prevents water droplets from the lid from affecting the smoothness of the custard. Steam on high heat for 10 minutes, then turn off the heat and let it sit for 5 minutes.
After steaming, add a spoonful of steamed fish soy sauce or light soy sauce.
Sprinkle chopped scallions on top, and the simple and tasty steamed egg custard is ready!
