Make the gelatin egg: sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water in a small bowl and let it sit for 2 minutes until the granules are fully absorbed and the mixture looks opaque and gel-like. Pour in the boiling water and whisk vigorously for about 30 seconds until the gelatin is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy. Set aside for 3–4 minutes — it should thicken to a loose, pourable consistency similar to a beaten egg.
