Ingredients

  • 4 Large fresh eggs
  • 400 ml (warm) Dashi stock or chicken broth
  • 1–1½ tsp Soy sauce
  • 1 tsp (optional) Mirin or sake
  • ¼ tsp Salt
  • shrimp, shiitake, chicken, green onion Optional add-ins

Method

  1. Whisk eggs gently (do not create foam) → add warm dashi/broth, soy sauce, mirin/sake, salt → whisk until uniform.
  2. Strain mixture through fine sieve into 4 heatproof cups/ramekins (removes bubbles for silky texture).
  3. Add any small add-ins (shrimp, mushroom slices, etc.) to each cup.
  4. Cover cups tightly with foil or lid (to prevent water droplets).
  5. Place cups in steamer basket or deep pan with rack → add boiling water to pan (water should not touch cups).
  6. Steam on medium-low heat 12–18 minutes (until set but still slightly jiggly in center).
  7. Remove → let rest 2 min → serve warm in cups with optional chopped green onion.
  8. Silky, savory steamed egg custard — classic Asian comfort dish.
