Japanese Chawanmushi (Steamed Egg Custard) step by step

  1. Cut ingredients (honeywort and Japanese fish cake) in small pieces..
  2. Crack 2 eggs into a bowl and weigh them. (It was 115g for 2 eggs this time.).
  3. Prepare 345g(=115g×3) of hot water. Mix a chicken stock cube with the water. (Since each stock cube brand has different taste, please adjust the amount of a stock.).
  4. ☆Tip 1☆ The ratio of egg and soup (chicken stock soup this time) should be "1: 3"!! This is a key to make a beautiful Chawanmushi! Since 2 eggs were 115g this time, we need 115g×3=345g of soup should be mixed together..
  5. ☆Tip 2☆ After measuring the amount of soup, please leave it for a while and cool it. If you don't have time, you can put ice cubes in a bowl and carefully put the bowl with soup inside..
  6. Pour water to a pot or pan(until around 3cm height) and sink a cloth. Boil the water. ☆Tip 3☆ By placing a cloth inside boiled water, it will avoid the cups to tremble and the surface of Chawanmushi will be smoother..
  7. Put ingredients into a heat resistant cups. ☆Tip 4☆ Choose small cups. If you cook with a large cup or plate, it will take a lot more time to heat until inside and more chance to fail..
  8. Once the chicken soup gets cool, mix it with eggs..
  9. ☆Tip 5☆ Pour the mixture of egg with soup into each cup with using a colander. This is optional but you will get a smoother texture..
