Tips and Pointers

An easy way to get the egg to stay on top of the rice is to make a dent in it. 【What is Ontama…?】 Onsen tamago (hot spring eggs) are a type of soft boiled eggs with the yolk soft and the egg white only half done. There are also soft boiled eggs called 'Ondo (temperature) Tamago' or 'Yu (boiled water) Tama' (egg). Also, eggs which have been steamed in hot springs (onsen) or boiled in hot water are called onsen tamago, regardless of whether they are hard or soft.

Tuna Shuto

Maguro (tuna) Shuto is made by salting and aging rare parts of these fish over a long period of time. Taking advantage of this long-term aging process, these ‘Japanese anchovies’ have a deep flavour and can be used as a main ingredient or a secret ingredient in many dishes. It can be used as a simple snack by putting it on cream cheese, a perfect match for pizza, or an exquisite sauce by adding it to olive oil or butter.
