Tips:
1. After the eggs are broken up, instead of adding water to the egg liquid, pour the egg liquid into the prepared water, so that the steamed custard will not grow old, and it does not sink to the bottom. This is the key to the delicate and smooth egg. And there is no need to filter, as long as it is wrapped with plastic wrap, the steamed surface will be very smooth. 2. Don't pour out the water for blanching clams. Filter out impurities and foam and use it as steamed custard water. The dosage is generally about 1:1.5, and you can also adjust it to your favorite consistency. 3. If you don't like lard, you can also replace it with sesame oil or other oils you like.
