Ingredients
  

For the Egg Mixture
  • 4 large Eggs
  • 1 cup Water or Stock Chicken or vegetable stock for richer flavor
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt Use less if using fine salt
  • 2 tablespoons Green Onion Optional, for added freshness

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, crack open large eggs and beat them gently until fully combined.
  2. Gradually add water or stock and kosher salt, mixing until evenly dispersed.
  3. If using, finely chop green onions and incorporate them now.
  4. Grease a 2-cup Korean earthenware bowl with toasted sesame oil.
  5. Pour the prepared egg mixture into the greased bowl, filling it about three-quarters full.
  6. Place the bowl on stovetop over medium-low heat and cover it. Steaming should take about 10 minutes.
  7. Check if done by lifting the lid; the mixture should be fluffy and slightly wobbly.
  8. Serve immediately on a heatproof coaster.
