How to Cook Korean Steamed Egg (Gaerun Jim)

Korean Steamed Egg

Ingredients:

4 eggs
3/4 Cups of Water
2 Tablespoons Salt / OR 3 Tablespoons Salted Baby Shrimp Juice (eww!)
1 Chopped Scallions

Steps:
1. Have 1 Inch water boiling on the side in a large stew pot.
2. Pour 3/4 Cups water into ceramic bowl, stir in salt/shrimp juice.
3. Crack 4 eggs into water, whisk heavily until it is an even pale yellow paste consistency.
4. Sprinkle scallions into eggs.
5. Place bowl inside pot, leave simmering high for 15 minutes, covered.
6. Check to see if done. If it is a jello even pale yellow color it is done. Do not over cook or you will lose the delicate taste!!

Enjoy!

I just made this recipe, and while it was perfectly simple w/a wonderful outcome, the recipe was too salty w/2 tbs of salt and I like my egg salty! next time i make it, and i will again, i will definately lesson the salt content. other than that, thank you for posting a recipe that i should have learned from my mom before she passed!
