This old-fashioned, nourishing recipe is simple, natural, and surprisingly powerful. With just 3 ingredients — egg, milk, and a pinch of flavor — you get a warm, protein-rich drink or base that replaces store-bought alternatives like pudding, custard, or even protein shakes.
🍶 What Is It?
When you pour a beaten egg into boiling milk, you create a gentle, thick, creamy drink or base often used in traditional kitchens for:
- Strengthening the body
- Boosting energy naturally

👨🍳 How to Prepare:
