Instructions

1
Beat the eggs thoroughly in a bowl until smooth and well combined. Add salt and mix well.
2
Slowly add the warm water while whisking continuously to create a smooth mixture. The ratio should be 1:1 eggs to water.
3
Strain the egg mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a heatproof dish or bowl to remove any lumps and air bubbles.
4
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil or plastic wrap to prevent water droplets from falling onto the surface.
5
Set up a steamer or place a steaming rack in a large pot with about 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to medium heat.
6
Steam the covered egg mixture for 10-12 minutes until the custard is set but still jiggly in the center.
7
Turn off heat and let sit for 2 minutes before carefully removing. Drizzle with soy sauce and sesame oil, garnish with scallions, and serve warm.
