Steamed eggy pie

If I've not mentioned it already, my little family is in love with chicken 🐔 eggs. 😍 We do not have the e99y as our beloved padre de pamilya for no reason at all. 
Omelette, sunny side up, egg sandwich, deviled eggs, scotch eggs, adobo eggs, salted eggs, egg soup, oh the list does go on! 

Another of our favorite take is steamed Eggy Pie. Much-loved by my brood, this one is perfect for merienda in school and at work or right in the comfort of home. Dessert? Easily so!

Simple and delicious, this is also a no-bake recipe. Instead of oven, only a steamer  is needed. And THAT makes it an absolute keeper in my recipe list! 😎

Steamed Eggy Pie

Serving size: 8-inch pan

1+1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cold butter
2 tbsp sugar

3 large eggs

1 cup evaporated milk
3/4 cup condensed milk
Vanilla essence

Prepare the crust:
1. Mash and mix the dry ingredients below.
    11/2 cup all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup cold butter chopped to small cubes
    2 tbsp sugar*
    *Whether brown or white depends on the color you'd like for the pie
2. Pour the crust mixture into the pan.
3. Gently press with your fingers, pressing the mix outward all the way to the sides of the pie to form the crust.
    Dust your fingers with all-purpose flour so the mixture will stick to the pan and not to your hands.
4. Let it rest in the fridge as you prepare the pie filling.

Prepare your steamer:
5. Bring your steamer to a simmer.
6. Ready your cheesecloth for your lid.

Make the pie filling:

7. In a large enough bowl, mix the wet ingredients below:
    3 large eggs
    1 cup evaporated milk
    3/4 cup condensed milk
    drops of vanilla
8. Whisk the mixture making sure all ingredients are combined well.
9. Take out your pan from the fridge.
10. With a strainer, pour the filling into the pan.
11. Cover pan well with aluminum foil.
12. Gently place the pie in your steamer rack.
13. Cover with cheesecloth and then with the lid.
14.  Steam for 20 to 30 minutes until cooked through.
       Do a poke test with a thin stick, such as toothpick, to check for doneness.
15.  Let it cool for a bit.
16. Slice and serve warm or chilled with your favorite beverage.🍹⛾

Enjoy! ^_^

Creamy Miso 🥣

I hated miso soup. And then I loved it ever since. This comfort soup may have a slight tangy taste depending on what type of miso is used. My hubby does not like a hint of sour/tangy stuff. To discover that milk could be added to spin off the taste was a welcome revelation!!! The aroma and taste always takes me back to my days in Japan. My very 1st sip of miso soup was at the canteen of an all-ladies dorm during my very 1st work trip in beautiful Tamagawa prefecture. It was my 1st time away from my motherland, and 1st time to experience winter, at that. To say that I was in a state of culture shock is an understatement. I loved soft fluffy Japanese rice. The roasted flaky saba fish. Ramen noodles. Crunchy karaage. Not miso soup though. I hated miso soup. But that fateful cold night, I have just reached "home" from the 10-minutes trudge from work. A quick change to warmer clothes, I was immediately at the dinner table. The warm soup felt grudgingly comforting. The next spoonf...
