Overseas RedNote users impress by cooking ‘new world-famous’ Chinese steamed eggs
By Fran Lu
Ask a user of the social media app RedNote what the new “world-famous” Chinese dish is, they will almost without exception say Chinese steamed eggs.
This is thanks to a trend of cooking steamed eggs, which some people mistakenly call “egg custard”, among domestic and international users on the app recently.
The trend began after a RedNote Chinese cooking influencer with 100,000 followers, @qunzidefan, posted a video recipe of the dish on January 18.
She added boiled water into whisked eggs, before putting the bowl of mix on the steamer rack for 15 minutes, achieving a perfectly silky, bubble-free steamed egg.
Her video seemed to spark the curiosity and competitiveness of other users, including the millions of new international netizens that flowed to the platform due to a potential ban on the Tiktok social media platform.
The outlawing of the platform has subsequently been put on hold by US President Donald Trump.
