Instructions:

1. quarter chicken meat. Remove scampi from their shells, carve slightly on the back and remove the dark intestines. Wipe mushrooms with a dry dishcloth and remove stems.

Season chicken, crab tails and shiitake mushrooms with salt and drizzle with sake. Drain gingonuts.

3. whisk eggs, but do not scramble until creamy. Add dashi clear soup, soy sauce and mirin. Pass the mixture through a sieve.

4. In not-too-shallow ovenproof bowls or possibly cups, evenly distribute crab tails, nuts, chicken, and shiitake and pour ice sauce on top. In a large saucepan, fill with about 2 inches of water.

Cover bowls with lids or cups with plastic wrap and place inside.

Heat water until it begins to boil down. Steam cups in it for 15-20 min. with lid closed at low temperature. To make sure that the condensed water does not drip onto the eggs, wrap a clean dishcloth around the lid. The water must not make in any case, otherwise holes may form in the egg mass.

6. before serving, garnish with daikon or mitsuba cress.

because even a Japanese can not serve the egg sting with chopsticks.
