In the autumn rain and cool, the clothes he wore changed from a cotton breathable T-shirt to a thick sweater that was airtight.
Shivering in the cold wind for a long time, I suddenly wanted to eat something hot.
A sweet smell tempts people to the roadside stalls, with the fresh aroma of eggs and the pure fragrance of milk.
The sign erected next to it emphasizes in warm yellow font - "egg boy".
Although it is a street food in Hong Kong, in the mainland, egg troves also occupy a small and solid position.
Life is hard, people always like something sweet, such as cake dessert and the like, always make people feel happy.
Eggs that take a shorter baking time have a cake flavor.
Golden yellow soft skin, teeth gently sunken in, the upper layer is hollow, while the lower layer is a soft glutinous sandwich, slightly elastic teeth.
A little charred egg cube, with a more unique flavor.
The crispy crust has become slightly burnt brown, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as "crispy on the outside and tender on the inside".
At this moment, the taste is also more mellow, less brisk and sweet, and a little more intoxicating intensity.
When I first met it, it was with ice cream.
Egg cube ice cream may be a very common accompaniment now.
But when I first saw it, I was really amazed by this wonderful combination.
Ice cream is cold and cold, giving people a refreshing feeling of cold, while egg pellets are hot and warm, emitting aromatic warmth.
One cold and one hot can be perfectly compatible at this moment, and two different sweets bring me a more unique sweet experience.
But in the weather that gradually turned cooler, the ice cream was no longer adapted to the season. Egg Boy stepped forward and the single "Boy" warmed me all winter.
Sometimes, accidents can produce some perfect results. This may be the case with the birth of egg troves.
In the 1950s, in order not to waste cracked eggs, some grocery store owners tried to add flour, butter and other ingredients to the eggs to make a pulp, and then baked by pouring molds.
Later, the mold was designed in the shape of a small egg, which was very popular, and the fishy smell in the egg made the egg cub have a more unique and strong fragrance.
The original egg cupped eggs are made of the juice of eggs, sugar, flour, evaporated milk, etc., poured in the middle of two special honeycomb-like iron templates, and baked on the fire.
Now, according to the different tastes of the public, more flavors have been developed.
Chocolate egg cubes, raisin egg cubes, etc. are also very popular.
In the stall owner's hand, he took the slightly hot egg cubes, full of heat with happiness and warmth, and arrived as scheduled.
