BON APPETIT SNACKS RECIPES

Steps:

• Place mushrooms in a medium bowl and pour in 1½ cups hot water to cover. Let sit 30 minutes to rehydrate.
• Squeeze out rehydrated mushrooms over bowl to catch soaking liquid; thinly slice mushrooms.
• Add eggs and hon-dashi to bowl of mushroom soaking liquid and whisk to combine. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a heatproof serving bowl (you will steam and serve from this bowl) to remove bubbles. Using a spoon, skim off any remaining bubbles, then gently sprinkle mushrooms over egg mixture.
• Place a steaming rack or basket in a large pot with a lid (make sure your bowl will fit in the pot when covered with lid). Pour in water to come 2" up sides of pot and bring to a simmer over medium heat. If using a Tatung steamer instead, add 1 cup water to steamer.
• Carefully place bowl with egg mixture into steamer and cover immediately, leaving lid slightly askew for steam to escape. Reduce heat to medium-low and steam, adjusting heat as needed to keep water at a gentle boil, until egg mixture is set and jiggly when shaken, 12–15 minutes. If using a Tatung steamer, place bowl with egg mixture in steamer and cover with lid, propping open with a folded paper towel. Press cook switch and wait until switch bounces back, about 15 minutes.
• Carefully remove bowl from steamer (use a hot dish clip or heatproof gloves). Top steamed eggs with soy sauce, scallion, and chili crisp as desired.

Steps:

• Fill a 1-cup (or larger) bowl (or mug) with 1/2 cup of water.
• Add a pinch of salt to the water if you like.
• Crack an egg into the bowl; make sure the egg is completely submerged.
• Cover the top of the bowl with a small plate or saucer.
• Microwave on HIGH power for 1 minute.
• Remove from microwave and check to see if white of the egg is firm.
• If the egg white or the yolk needs more cooking, re-cover the bowl and microwave on HIGH for another 15 seconds.*.
• Using a slotted serving spoon or large fork, carefully transfer the egg to your toast, your plate, etc., and sprinkle with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste.
• *Please note that microwave cooking times will vary.When I make this, I take the egg out after 1 minute on HIGH and flip it over in the bowl, re-cover, and cook on HIGH for another 15 seconds.
