How to cook it

  1. Cook the rice separately by your usual method and keep it warm.

  2. Beat the eggs well with the water and salt, straining once for a silkier texture.

  3. Pour into a small heatproof bowl or onggi and steam over simmering water, covered, for 12 minutes until just set and jiggly in the center.

  4. Scatter the steamed egg with scallions and a drizzle of sesame oil.

  5. Serve the egg custard bubbling hot straight from its bowl alongside a bowl of warm rice and soy sauce for drizzling.
