Why Steamed Eggs Have Honeycomb Shapes: Learn 3 Techniques for Tender and Smooth Texture Like Pudding
Growing up, our living conditions were not good, but the adults would try their best to supplement our nutrition, eating as much as possible – eggs. They were all laid by chickens raised in our own home. Adults couldn't bear to eat them and saved them all for their children. At home, they made steamed eggs for their children, and boiled eggs to eat. Because these eggs were particularly rich in nutrients~
Eggs have always been a very popular food. Although they are relatively cheap, they are a popular nutritional ingredient. Even in families with children, adults will buy eggs to return home to make them for their children to eat. Although there are many ways to eat eggs, when giving them to children, they try to make them into steamed eggs, which is a better approach for children to digest~
In the past, when people made steamed eggs, they didn't pay much attention to it. I remember eating steamed eggs as a child, all with honeycomb shapes, still very fragrant. But nowadays, children are very picky eaters. If it doesn't taste good, they won't eat it. My friend's child is an example. My friend doesn't cook well, and the steamed eggs she makes are all 'pronation' (), which her child doesn't eat.
Later I told him the method of making steamed eggs. As long as you remember these three techniques, the steamed eggs you make will be tender and smooth, like pudding. First, we beat the eggs into a bowl, then add some rice wine, salt, and pepper, and mix thoroughly. Next, prepare some cold water and pour it into the egg liquid, and continue to mix well. Then prepare 200ml of warm water and pour it in.
After mixing well, prepare a funnel and then filter the egg liquid. Finally, wrap the bowl containing the egg liquid with plastic wrap, poke several holes with a toothpick, and put it in a steamer to steam for 8 minutes. This steamed egg is especially tender and smooth. The three techniques to remember are 1, when making steamed eggs, you need to add some rice wine, which can remove the fishy smell and make the taste more fragrant, 2, after the eggs are mixed well, you must filter the egg liquid, so there will be no air holes, 3, when making steamed eggs, the bowl with the egg liquid needs to be wrapped with plastic wrap. Mastering these three techniques can make steamed eggs especially delicious~
