Recipe

Pour water into a pot and bring it to a boil with a small amount of salt.
Strain the egg through a fine sieve, removing the runny white part and keeping only the firm center.
Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to very low or turn it off briefly to let the bubbles on the surface settle.
Gently push the strained egg into the still water and let it sit undisturbed for about 2 minutes, allowing the whites to gently enclose the yolk and cook to a soft consistency.
Carefully remove the cooked egg with a ladle and lightly pat off excess moisture.
Place a pat of butter on warm rice and carefully place the meticulously prepared soft-boiled egg on top.
Drizzle with soy sauce and sesame oil, then break the yolk and mix everything together for a rich, savory bite.

Bring water with a little salt to a boil.
Strain the egg to remove the runny white part.
Place the egg into gently simmering water and cook for 2 minutes.
Carefully remove the cooked egg.
On the rice, add butter, egg, soy sauce, and sesame oil, then mix and enjoy.

Cooking tips

Straining out the runny egg white beforehand prevents it from scattering like threads in the water.
Never add the egg to vigorously boiling water—this will ruin the shape. Always reduce the heat first to create a calm, gentle simmer before adding the egg.
