Instructions

  1. Combine eggs, salted shrimp (if using), and a pinch of salt in a medium mixing bowl. Add baking powder and beat them well until frosty.
  2. Pour chicken stock in a pot and bring it to boil over medium high heat. Reduce the heat to medium. Slowly pour egg mixture into the chicken stock as you stir gently with a spoon.
  3. Keep stirring the egg mixture, scraping it as necessary from the side of the pot to the center. You will want to stir until the egg mixture reaches 80% cooked, about 2 minutes.
  4. Cover the pot with a dome shaped heat-safe bowl immediately. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Turn off the heat and remove the lid (make sure to wear kitchen gloves). You will see the egg mixture has risen well above the rim of your pot.
