It's difficult when you catch a cold. I had no energy to take my child with me to go shopping, but I really wanted to eat tofu. So for those times, my mother always said that if you don't have the ingredients on hand to make a chawanmushi, the next best thing is an egg custard.

Keep an eye on the custard when cooking it. If you don't strain the mixture in Step 3, the egg will settle at the bottom and have a different texture. Recipe by mhanako
