Warm water at 45 degrees. If boiled water is put, the egg liquid will solidify and become egg shaped before being steamed. But if you steam eggs with cold water, the time of steaming eggs will be longer, and the egg soup will not be so fresh and delicious as the heating time increases. The best temperature for steaming eggs is about 45 ℃. The egg liquid at this temperature is not only fast, but also soft, tender and smooth.
What bowl is good for steamed eggs
The best choice is a stainless steel bowl with good thermal conductivity, which not only saves fire, but also makes it easier to master the temperature and avoid too long a time. If you don't have a stainless steel bowl at home, a thin porcelain bowl can also be used. Put the boiled water into a bowl with egg liquid and steam for about 10 minutes.
In addition, some people like to steam the egg liquid in small bowls according to the number of people, while others are accustomed to steaming it in a large bowl. Which is faster and more nutritious. The two methods are similar. If containers of the same material are used, the time required is almost the same. Don't worry, the high temperature of water vapor during egg soup steaming will damage the nutrition of eggs, because the nutrition of eggs is mainly protein and minerals, which are relatively stable and will not be easily damaged. Compared with frying, steaming can keep more nutrition.
