Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • If making katsuobushi broth at home is inconvenient, you can substitute with a small amount of store-bought hondashi for flavor.
  • Rinsing shrimp in salt water makes the flesh firmer and reduces fishy taste, enhancing the clean sweetness of the gokku.
  • Like baking, cook slowly over low heat with gentle steaming to ensure the inside stays fluffy and doesn’t sink.

Recommended for

  • Those who want a healthy, protein-rich, sweet snack without flour.
  • Those eager to try authentic Japanese restaurant-style egg cake using only a pan and no oven.
