Zheng Shui Dan (Chinese Steamed Eggs)

Ingredients

• •4 eggs
• •300 ml warm water
• •1 tbsp soy sauce
• •1 tsp sesame oil
• •1 green onion, sliced

Directions

1. 1Beat the eggs gently, trying not to whip air into them.
2. 2Add the warm water in a thin stream, stirring, and season with a pinch of salt.
3. 3Pour the mixture through a fine sieve into a shallow dish to remove every thread and bubble.
4. 4Cover the dish tightly with foil so no condensation can drip onto the surface.
5. 5Steam over low heat for twelve minutes until just set and barely wobbling in the centre.
6. 6Drizzle with the soy sauce and sesame oil and scatter the green onion over.

💡 Sieve it and cover it. Those two steps are the whole difference between a silk custard and a pitted, watery one.
