Asian Taste #3: Steamed Eggs

Hey Snow Lo people!

I bet you all are so ready for spring break.

Today I'm here with the steamed eggs recipe.

Sorry vegan people


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Steamed Eggs (2 servings)

picture

Ingredients
1) 2 eggs
2) 1 package of shiitage mushroom
3) 1 green onion
4) salt
5) soy sauce
6) 1/2 cup of soy milk or milk
7) 1/2 cup of water or broth of preference
8) 1 package of frozen shrimps (additional for non-vegetarian)

How to
1) boil water in a big pot
2) wash shiitage mushroom, squeeze water out, and slice into thin pieces.
3) wash green onion and slice into pieces.
4) mix eggs (both white and yolk), salt, soy sauce, water, shiitage mushroom, green onion, and milk together in a bowl.
5) add it into 2 small bowls (use the ones that aren't deep so eggs are cooked faster)
6) use either 2 small plates or an aluminum foil as the lid.
7) low down the heat to low, sit both bowls in boiled water, and close the pot's lid.

It should take around 30-45 minutes to be cooked.
When it's cooked, it will be similar to custards.

Quick Shortcut: if you are in a hurry. Follow only steps 2 - 5. For step 6, use a plate only. Then, put the bowl in your microwave. Cook it around three minutes. However, its surface won't be smooth comparing to the original procedure

You can have it plain or with rice. Enjoy!!!

Chinese people always have a soup on their dining table almost every meal.

That's because it is very filling and maintain body temperature (I personally don't care as long as is yummy ).

Qing Tang (清汤) is the Chinese name of a clear soup.

It can be cooked in many ways, depending on your preference.
