Cooking tips
- You can achieve a much smoother egg custard without the hassle of straining—just wipe off egg strings stuck in the whisk’s gaps with a kitchen towel.
- If using regular salt instead of flavor salt, add 1 teaspoon of regular salt and a pinch of dashi powder for enhanced umami flavor.
- Placing a cloth or silicone pad at the bottom of the pot while steaming completely eliminates the noisy clattering sound.
