Lazy man’s double skin milk recipe

Double Skin Milk is an extraordinary gustatory adventure. The moment it touches the palate, the fragrance of milk envelops the senses, unveiling a canvas of flavors. The delicate threads of milk fragrance seem akin to childhood memories, dancing on the tongue, inviting immersion in the nostalgia of those wonderful moments.

Authentic Chinese Cantonese double cream is supposed to be made by heating the milk and pouring it into a bowl. When the milk cools down, it will form a milk skin on the surface, at this point, lift the skin up by one corner and pour out the milk so that a layer of milk skin will remain at the bottom of the bowl. Pour out the milk with egg whites and sugar, re-pour it into the bowl with the milk skin, and steam it on the pot. When the steamed milk mixture cools down, it will form another layer of milk skin, so it is called double skin milk.
Lazy practice, of course, is to omit the first layer of milk skin steps, mixed with a good egg and milk mixture on the pan steam on it, less a layer of milk skin does not affect it.

1x2x3x

• 180 ml milk
• Egg white of 1 egg, about 30ml
• 15 g sugar

Instructions

 

• Mix the egg whites, sugar and milk, stir welland explain: the sizes of eggs vary greatly, and some people make them too watery because the eggs are too small and there is too much milk!
• Pass the mixture through a fine sieve and filter out the unbeaten egg white to avoid affecting the taste.
• Then pour the mixture into two small bowls, wrap the bowls entirely with plastic wrap, and poke many small holes on them with toothpicks to prevent water vapor from falling in during steaming
• Add water to the steamer, put a layer of gauze or drawer cloth on the steamer to ensure that the bowl is heated evenly, and bring the water to a boil over high heat.
• After the water boils and the steamer begins to steam, place (3) into the steamer, cover the pot, and steam over high heat for 8-10 minutes. You need to adjust the time according to the size of your bowl.
• After steaming, turn off the heat and simmer with the lid on for 10 minutes.

Notes

When making double-skinned milk, there will be leftover egg yolks that can be used to make pudding, and they can be steamed, which tastes just as good.
