Step-by-Step Instructions for Miso Scrambled Eggs
  1. In a medium bowl, crack four large eggs and add a sprinkle of white sugar. Use a whisk to blend the mixture thoroughly until it’s smooth and there are no visible streaks, about 1-2 minutes.
  2. In a separate small bowl, mix one tablespoon of white miso paste with one tablespoon of cool water to create a smooth consistency. Gradually stir this miso mixture into your egg blend.
  3. Place a nonstick pan over low heat and add one teaspoon of toasted sesame oil. Allow the oil to warm gently.
  4. Pour the egg and miso mix into the heated pan. Using a silicone spatula, gently stir the mixture in a slow, circular motion for about 1-2 minutes.
  5. Once you see some curds forming around the edges, gently fold the eggs from the edges into the center for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  6. Remove the pan from heat and transfer your miso scrambled eggs to a plate. Sprinkle with shichimi togarashi if desired.
