Korean Steamed Egg Pot with Scallion and Sesame

7 ingredients

7 steps

What you need

  • 4 large eggs
  • 180 ml (3/4 cup) anchovy stock, unsalted; water or unsalted chicken stock also works
  • 1 tsp salted shrimp liquid, saeujeot brine; optional, replaces part of the salt

Method

Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Beat the eggs with the salt and salted shrimp liquid until no streaks of white remain.

  2. 2

    Stir in the stock, then pour the mixture through a fine sieve into a small heavy pot about 16 cm (6 in) wide. This keeps the texture smooth.

  3. 3

    Set the pot over medium heat and stir slowly, scraping the bottom, until large soft curds form and the mixture is about 70% set, 2 min.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle on half of the scallion, cover with a lid and turn the heat to the lowest setting.

  5. 5

    Cook until the egg rises above the rim and the center is set with only a slight jiggle, 4-6 min. Do not lift the lid before the 4 min mark.

  6. 6

    Turn off the heat. Drizzle with the sesame oil and finish with the remaining scallion and the sesame seeds.

  7. 7

    Serve in the pot, hot, as a side with rice.
