Do not make steamed egg custard at the following four points:
1, avoid adding raw water and hot water. Add raw water because there is air in tap water. After the water is boiled, the air will be discharged, and the custard will have small beehives, which will affect the quality of custard, lack tenderness and damage its nutrients. It is not advisable to use hot boiled water, otherwise the boiled water will first heat the egg liquid and then steam it, which will damage the nutrition and even steam the egg custard. It is best to steam the egg custard with cold boiled water, which will avoid the loss of nutrition and make the egg custard smooth, soft and delicious.
2, avoid stirring the egg liquid. Stir the egg liquid violently or for a long time before steaming will make the egg liquid foam, and the egg liquid will not dissolve into one when steaming after stirring. It is best to beat the egg mixture, add cold boiled water, and then slightly break it up and stir it.
3. Avoid adding condiments before steaming. If seasoning is added to the custard before steaming, protein will be denatured and its nutrition will be damaged, and the steamed custard will not be fresh and tender. The seasoning method should be: after steaming, cut the custard several times with a knife, and add a little cooked soy sauce or salt water, chopped green onion, sesame oil and so on. In this way, the custard is delicious, tender and nutritious.
4, the steaming time should not be too long, and the steam should not be too large. Because the egg liquid is rich in protein, when heated to about 85℃, it will gradually solidify into pieces. If the steaming time is too long, the custard will become hard and the protein will be damaged. Too much steam will make the custard honeycomb and reduce the umami taste.
The best way to steam the egg custard is to deflate it, that is, when steaming the egg custard, don't cover the lid tightly, leave a little gap, and run away while steaming. The best time to steam eggs is when they are ripe and tender.
