Important Notes

⚠️

Weighing the eggs is important to get the correct dashi ratio (1 part egg to 2.5 parts dashi) for the perfect texture.

⚠️

Whisk the eggs gently to minimize bubbles, which can cause holes in the finished custard.

⚠️

Straining the mixture is a key step to achieve a silky-smooth consistency.

⚠️

Covering the cups with foil or lids prevents steam condensation from diluting the custard.

⚠️

The '0 minute' steam time works because the custard cooks as the pressure builds and during the natural release phase.
