Recipe

Crack 1 egg into a heatproof container or bowl and beat well until the whites and yolks are fully combined.
Add 1 cup (200ml) of water to the beaten egg, then add 1 teaspoon of chicken stock or salt for umami, and mix evenly.
To achieve a smooth surface, strain the egg mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to completely remove any lumps and bubbles.
Cover the top of the container with plastic wrap to prevent steam from dripping into the egg mixture.
Place the container in a steamer that has been preheated with boiling water, and steam over gentle heat for about 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, remove and peel off the plastic wrap to reveal a perfectly steamed egg that is jiggly and tender like pudding.

Mix 1 egg with 200ml water and 1 teaspoon chicken stock.
Strain the egg mixture through a fine sieve to remove bubbles and lumps, then cover with plastic wrap.
Place in a steamer with boiling water and steam for 15 minutes.

Cooking tips

The ratio of water to egg is key: for 1 egg, use a generous 200ml of water—more than you'd expect—to achieve the wobbly pudding texture.
Be sure to cover with plastic wrap or a lid to prevent water droplets from the steamer lid from creating holes on the surface of the steamed egg.
Once done, refrigerate the steamed egg to chill it, then scoop it out cleanly like ice cream for a fun dessert-like treat.
