Cooking Chawanmushi sounds difficult. However, if you understand the tips, you will not fail in making this!Although we usually use dashi soup(Japanese soup stock), I used chicken stock cubes as a substitute and it tastes amazing too!

I received some fresh corn from my mother-in-law.In Step 2, you can easily remove the corn kernels with your hands.In Step 3, save as much as you like for the ankake (sweet thick sauce).You can use canned whole corn kernels, but it's best when the corn is fresh off the cob! For serving 2 to 3. Recipe by motchan

I wanted to create spring-like dishes to enjoy the season.If you don't like the beans and sausage slices sinking down to the bottom, place them when the egg mixture starts to set. Ensure that small air bubbles aren't formed in the egg mixture by checking how set the egg mixture is occasionally. If you use mentsuyu add only 1 tablespoon first and check the taste. If you need more, add more. Recipe by Asamato

I wanted to come up with a tasty recipe that included wakame seaweed.・Mind that the plastic wrap doesn't come off. If you are worried, secure with an elastic band.・ A tea strainer is handy to use when straining the egg mixture. Recipe by Fuukasan

This is a nice change of pace from making Chinese or Japanese-style chawanmushi. Kelanchim is made by pouring egg into hot broth and is boiled on a high heat. This has a nice texture in contrast to Japan's fluffy version. Make it however you like.Dashi stock is made with liquid seasoning, so it has less water content than Chinese stock. This recipe calls for dashi stock granules, so use 2/3 teaspoon salt, but use 1 whole teaspoon if you are using dried bonito flakes for the broth. Kelanchim is generally made in an earthenware pot, but it can also be easily made in a normal pot. Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei

Whenever I order something spicy from a Korean restaurant, I always get some of this for free.When adding the dashi stock, be sure it's cooled. If it's hot, the eggs will cook too quickly.If the flame is too strong, the eggs will become hard and dry. Slowly steam over low heat until the edges have burnt a little and the inside is cooked through. Recipe by Gutsugutsudesu

How about a microwavable chawanmushi with ingredients of your choice such as shrimp, fish cake, mushrooms, chestnuts, etc.? You can make a fluffy chawanmushi without using a steamer!If you like it sweeter, you can add mirin or sugar.It is also recommended for those who have difficulty swallowing food.

Chawan-mushi is steamed egg custard in a cup. I would like you to enjoy the flavor of dashi! It's very mild and nice!!! This recipe is from a Japanese restaurant, so it's the real Japanese taste! You can also put in other things such as a scallop and crab meat! Enjoy☆ **1 cup = 250ml

I wanted to make chawanmushi since I had lots of eggs, but I only had wakame seaweed for the filling.It's delicious just with wakame seaweed, but if you add kamaboko fish cake and imitation crab sticks, they will add more colour and it will taste better.Remove the lid after 10 minutes in Step 4, and check the egg mixture. If it's still runny, cook a little bit more, or microwave. Recipe by zakkiiM

This is very simple to make since I used instant clear soup (osuimono) packets as the soup stock. I love chawanmushi, and I wanted to be able to make it at any time. I came up with this recipe through trial and error. You can make this very easily in a frying pan too. Steaming the custard is the most difficult part, but as long as there's steam, you can cook them fine over low heat.Gingko nuts make a loud noise when they're heated so beware! Soup mixes differ from brand to brand so make sure you adjust the amount of salt added accordingly. If your pot or pan cover is dome-shaped, water will not drip so you don't need a towel. Take a peek at the custard frequently to make sure it doesn't get too full of bubbles, which ruin the texture. When the custards puff up a little bit they are done. Recipe by Agatsukuiekei

Custard cream made with only egg yolks is good, but I used a whole egg because I did not want to waste egg whites, and I wanted to make a large amount.When you take the custard cream out of the microwave, mix well to prevent lumps. You don't need to add the margarine. If the cream is still loose at step 2, microwave a few seconds without the plastic wrap. Recipe by Fumoto

It's difficult when you catch a cold. I had no energy to take my child with me to go shopping, but I really wanted to eat tofu. So for those times, my mother always said that if you don't have the ingredients on hand to make a chawanmushi, the next best thing is an egg custard.Keep an eye on the custard when cooking it. If you don't strain the mixture in Step 3, the egg will settle at the bottom and have a different texture. Recipe by mhanako

After much trial and error, I have come up with a custard pudding for my family that can be made in the microwave.I adjusted the ingredient amounts and microwave time to make this recipe.The microwave time is all approximate.The time will differ depending on the season, the machine, the wattage, and the age (check on it every 30 seconds.)When you check the pudding and the surface is hard, it's done.

This is a variation on a recipe my friend taught me. If you want to make it richer, use 2 egg yolks, butter, and vanilla essence, and add some rum once it has cooled. This is a variation I made when I was a newly-wed. You can freeze leftover egg whites.When adding the milk to the dry ingredients, add it in multiple batches so that lumps do not form. The cream will seem a bit thin once finished, but it will thicken as it cools. If you add an egg yolk, it will become rich and more like regular custard cream. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

When you make custard, you don't usually use the egg white, so I wondered what it would turn out like if I did.It's a simple tasting cream with egg white and low fat milk. It's great for when you are on a diet. Of course, you can use normal milk if you want. If you are wrapping it in bread, microwave for 2 minutes at Step 4. It will be firmer. Recipe by mio*.

I don't like having leftover egg whites. I also don't like making custard in a pan, since I think it will get burnt.I referred to several recipes for custard instructions, and after several experiments, I came up with this recipe which uses whole eggs and also makes just the right amount for an 18 cm tart.I use a small whisk that I got in a 100 yen shop. If you don't have a whisk like that just use 4 chopsticks held together.If you use soy milk, the pastry cream will stiffen faster (See Step 4).The microwave time will vary on your microwave oven. If it's your first time making this, and/or you have a microwave that has a capacity higher than 400w, please try shortening the cooking times. Recipe by Nekozame

I love cooked apples such as the filling in apple pies. When apples are in season during autumn and winter, I always feel like eating rich apple pie with custard! But it takes time to bake it...and I don't want to wait that long to eat. So I decided to just make the filling and it turned out delicious.All you need to do is to cut the apple, mix, microwave and mix again. Quickly mix the apple after microwaving it but be careful not to burn your hand with the hot bowl.It fills you up more when you eat with other foods but this alone is also rich and satisfying. I recommended this when you want to eat something sweet right away. Recipe by Iamitsuki
