Everything about Chawanmushi totally explained
Chawanmushi (茶碗蒸し,
Chawanmushi, literally "tea cup steam" or "steamed in a tea bowl") is an
egg custard dish found in
Japan that uses the seeds of
ginkgo. Unlike many other custards, it's usually eaten as an appetizer. The custard consists of an egg mixture flavored with
soy sauce,
dashi, and
mirin, with numerous ingredients such as
shiitake mushrooms,
kamaboko, and boiled shrimp placed into a tea-cup-like container. The recipe for the dish is similar to that of
Chinese steamed eggs, but the toppings may often differ.
Chawanmushi can be eaten either hot and cool. When
udon is added as an ingredient, it's called
odamaki mushi or
odamaki udon.
Unusual for a traditional Japanese dish, it's commonly eaten with a spoon.
