Cooking tips

  • If shrimp paste is unavailable, you can substitute with anchovy sauce or dried anchovy broth; when using salt, add only 1/2 teaspoon to balance the flavor.
  • Sesame oil has a low smoke point and can easily burn on high heat, so always sauté vegetables over medium heat or lower to preserve its rich aroma.
  • High heat will quickly burn the bottom, so after pouring in the egg mixture, reduce the flame to the lowest setting and steam slowly to ensure a moist, tender result.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a soft, mild, and easily digestible nutritious side dish.
  • People interested in mastering the technique of steaming egg custard without burning the bottom and achieving a perfectly moist interior.
