Tofu and egg custard

Tofu and egg custard

Overview

Egg custard has been a snack since I was a child. When I was a child, my mother would put a little shrimp in it every time she steamed it. It has a salty taste and is delicious. Later, after I graduated, I lived outside. Sometimes I didn’t know what to eat for breakfast, so I just had an egg and a bowl of water. When I got up, I put the egg custard in the pot and steamed it. After I washed up, the egg custard was ready. However, at that time, the steamed bags were often messed up, and the appearance was really unbearable to look at. Today's egg custard has some soft tofu and mushrooms sprinkled on top. It has a smooth and tender texture and is very suitable for breakfast. If the taste is stronger, you can sprinkle some fried minced meat on top to make it more delicious.
