◆ Main Ingredients
Egg, Mixed
Egg and dashi blended together, steamed until silky and trembling like pudding — with small surprises inside like shrimp, chicken, and ginkgo nuts. Not a dessert, but the gentle sweetness of the dashi makes it deeply comforting. The filling varies — shrimp, chicken, ginkgo nuts, and fish cake are all common. The silky egg custard is always the constant.
卵とお出汁を混ぜて、プリンのようにプルプルに蒸し上げた料理よ。中には海老や鶏肉、「ぎんなん(小さな木の実)」なんかの宝物が隠れているんだよね。デザートじゃないのに、お出汁の優しい甘みで心までほっこりする「食べる癒し」だよ。
