Cooking tips
- Avoid over-whisking the eggs to preserve the rustic, slightly coarse texture that gives this dish its nostalgic character and satisfying chew.
- Lay a silicone mat or clean cotton cloth on the pot bottom to prevent the bowl from moving or cracking during boiling.
- Adjust cooking time based on bowl material—steam stainless steel bowls for about 10 minutes, and thicker ceramic ones for about 12 minutes due to differences in heat conductivity.
Recommended for

- People seeking a foolproof, 100% successful steamed egg custard without worrying about burning clay pots due to temperature control issues.
