About Steam egg

Steam egg, also known as steamed egg custard or chawanmushi in Japanese cuisine, is a delicate dish made by whisking eggs with water or broth to create a smooth mixture, then steaming it to achieve a silky texture. Commonly enjoyed in East Asian cuisines, this versatile dish may include ingredients like soy sauce, sesame oil, or dashi for flavor, and can be topped with vegetables, seafood, or mushrooms. Steam egg is a nutritious choice, rich in high-quality protein from the eggs and low in calories depending on preparation. Its blend of light seasoning and optional nutrient-dense toppings makes it a heart-healthy option. However, the sodium content can rise with excessive use of soy sauce or salted ingredients. Simple yet satisfying, steam egg exemplifies balance and simplicity in traditional cooking.
