The steam bar of the coffee machine may not have thought that somewhere in the world, their kind is not only used for foaming and heating, but also used to "scramble" eggs, or a famous dish in Colombian cafes.

The use of steam sticks to "scramble" eggs (Huevos Al Vapor) was invented in 1955 by the owner of a Colombian cafe called Cafe El Polo.

In western countries at that time, eggs were usually cooked, fried, or baked. The boss was inspired by a taste of steamed Japanese tea bowls (steamed eggs), hoping that the eggs would be tender and smooth and contain meat without steaming.

So, in a sudden flash, I looked at the steam bar of the coffee machine. "if the temperature of the steam can constantly heat milk, it proves that eggs can be steamed and solidified." So the boss began to try to beat eggs in the coffee cup and break them up, then add salt, butter, ham, and then very hard-core Ooh.

As we all know, it is impossible not to produce bubbles when milk is heated by steam. And this cup of eggs is so 😂, steamed and solidified eggs are not only very slippery, but also very fluffy, just like Sauvignon, the taste is more layered.

The diners sitting at that time were so interested in the egg cups in the shape of muffin cake that they ordered one and subverted everyone's understanding of the taste of eggs after cooking. In this way, the dish's reputation spread all over the town, and many cafes imitated it, eventually becoming a must-have breakfast option in coffee shops in many Colombian cities.

The owner of the cafe El Polo was busy with the popularity of his invention, and it wasn't long before he invented La macana, which mixed soda cracker, lots of butter, sugar and milk into a coffee cup, boiled it in steam and sprinkled cinnamon on it.

Although it doesn't look good, but! It is also one of the famous dishes in the local cafe! It can be said that everyone is obsessed with fluffy food.

For this practice of steamed eggs, many curious netizens have also tried! Although netizens who have tried it said that the eggs made in this way do taste very soft and smooth, like scrambled eggs that can be melted in the mouth.

But the painting style can be said to be very embarrassed! After evaporating, everyone scraped the solidified eggs on the steam stick with a small fork.

Wipe hard with a clean cloth.

Some netizens said that since the egg was boiled, the exhaust hole of the steam rod was blocked by the egg. Even if it was dredged, the egg liquid still went to the inner wall of the collection stick and solidified, adding some ingredients to the milk from time to time. Or the latte has a faint egg flavor in it. (regret and complain tearfully)

Isn't that right?! Look at the steam bar of Caf é El Polo, it is obvious that they have also given up the struggle!

Today, after the code clerk and her colleagues read the relevant practices together, she held it down for me, worried that I would try! She said that after the last experiment with raw eggs to beat delicate foam to make Vietnam's famous egg coffee, she smelled the fishy smell of eggs all day.

Am I that kind of person?! (yes) if the coffee machine didn't need to be produced in daily stores, I would really have the urge to try! But reason wins impulse!

In fact, if you want the soft, moist and fluffy taste of this steam bar, as long as you break up the eggs, just put them into the boil and immediately turn off the heat and stir them out of the whirlpool, and then fish them out when they are solidified, and then gently press out the moisture in them, and you will have the same taste.

However, it is no less troublesome than scrambling eggs with a steam stick.
