2 servings · 5 min prep · 10 min cook

Ingredients

2 large eggs
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup warm water

Steps

In a medium bowl, gently whisk the 2 large eggs with the ¼ tsp salt until small bubbles start to form on the surface, about 1 minute.
Add the 1 cup warm water to the egg mixture and carefully whisk until thoroughly combined.
Carefully pour the egg mixture through a fine-mesh sieve and into 2 small ramekins or bowls. Cover with plastic wrap or foil and gently pierce with a knife to create a steam vent.
Place a steamer rack in a pot and fill the pot with 1 cup water until it reaches just below the rack. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Then gently place the ramekins on the rack and lower the heat to medium-low. Cover and steam for 10 minutes.
10 min
Carefully remove the ramekins from the steamer and garnish with desired toppings. Serve immediately. Enjoy the silkiest 2 large eggs you've ever had!
