How is the salt shell on Chengdu salted eggs made?

This is actually steamed in a washbasin. It's better to use a coal-burning stove, which is more economical. If you use a rice cooker, it will take a long time, because no one here has used a rice cooker.

Tell me how to do it, 1, prepare a container, and lay a layer of salt on it first (coarse salt is recommended here);

2. Put the eggs and quail eggs into a container;

3. Cover the egg surface with salt, because there are gaps between the eggs, so you may prepare more salt, at least you feel that the covered salt has completely covered the egg surface;

4. Stew in a pot full of hot water and cook the eggs with fire (in fact, this is a salted egg in the picture, not a salted egg). If you want to make salted eggs, put salt in the pot directly, put the eggs in salt and bake the pot on the fire, but pay attention to the situation that "eggs will explode" because the eggs are heated.

I have cooked both kinds of eggs, and the latter tastes better.
