How to make double skin milk


Double skin milk (Cantonese: 雙皮奶, soeng1 pei4 naai5) is a Cantonese dessert made of milk, egg whites, and sugar. It is first invented in Shunde, Guangdong. It is a velvety smooth milk custard somewhat resembling panna cotta, with two skins. The first skin is formed during cooling of the boiled milk and the second when cooling the cooked custard. Traditionally buffalo milk is used; its higher fat content compared to cow's milk produces a smooth texture. This dessert is particularly famous in Shunde, Guangzhou, Macau, and Hong Kong area.
