Home versions generally have scallion, century egg, or dried shrimp. The taste is usually savory (as opposed to a sweet custard). The ingredients are added to the egg mixture before steaming. It can also be enjoyed with soy sauce.

Famous quotes containing the word variety:
“Belonging to a group can provide the child with a variety of resources that an individual friendship often cannot—a sense of collective participation, experience with organizational roles, and group support in the enterprise of growing up. Groups also pose for the child some of the most acute problems of social life—of inclusion and exclusion, conformity and independence.”
—Zick Rubin (20th century)
“Gradually we come to admit that Shakespeare understands a greater extent and variety of human life than Dante; but that Dante understands deeper degrees of degradation and higher degrees of exaltation.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“The best interviews—like the best biographies—should sing the strangeness and variety of the human race.”
—Lynn Barber (b. 1944)
