Soft and Silky Steamed Egg Recipe
Making a Perfectly Smooth and Tender Steamed Egg 🙂
This steamed egg is much softer and more delicate than the ones I’ve made before, making it incredibly delicious♥
Ingredients
- 20ml water
- 30ml milk
- 2 raw eggs
- A pinch of salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare all the ingredients for the recipe. Letting the eggs come to room temperature can help them mix better. 🙂
Step 2
Crack the 2 eggs into a bowl. Whisk them thoroughly until the yolks and whites are well combined and the mixture turns a pale yellow. This step is key to achieving a smooth texture.
Step 3
Now, add 20ml of water to the egg mixture and gently stir again. Water helps to make the steamed egg even more delicate. ♥ Whisk until just combined.
Step 4
Next, add 30ml of milk. Milk will add a rich, creamy flavor and contribute to a wonderfully soft texture, making your steamed egg even more delightful. 🙂 Stir until evenly mixed.
Step 5
Finally, add just a pinch of salt to season. Salt enhances the overall flavor of the steamed egg, but be careful not to add too much as it can become too salty. ~
Step 6
Strain the egg mixture through a fine-mesh sieve 2-3 times. This crucial step ensures there are no lumps, resulting in a perfectly smooth and velvety steamed egg. It removes any chalazae, giving you a wonderfully silky bite!
Step 7
Pour the prepared egg mixture into a microwave-safe dish. Then, microwave on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds. Cooking times may vary slightly depending on your microwave’s power. ♥
Step 8
A word of caution! If you use a small dish like I did, the steamed egg can puff up significantly and overflow when heated. Therefore, it’s highly recommended to use a larger bowl or only fill the dish halfway to prevent a mess. This ensures a safe and clean cooking process!
Step 9
Voila! Your perfectly tender steamed egg is ready. It’s best enjoyed warm right away. Experience the melt-in-your-mouth softness. The end~
