Tofu is my secret weapon

Transcript

What if I told you there are over 50 grams of protein in my steamed eggs with shrimp recipe? My secret hack to up the protein in this dish is to add tofu. Personally, I see no flavor change or texture change when I added it in. So why not get some extra protein in? For every three whole eggs, I add half a block of silken tofu. I par-steamed the eggs and then because there's nothing better than steamed shrimp, I add six right on top. I let that continue steaming and when it's done, I top it off with sesame oil, soy sauce, chili crisp, and a sprinkle of scallions.
