Preparation

1. Whisk together the eggs, soy sauce, and agave or sugar in the Anyday Small Dish. Make sure the eggs are very well beaten, which will help make the custard smooth. Slowly pour the dashi into the eggs and stir gently to mix. Use a small strainer to skim bubbles from the surface.
2. Cover with the lid (knob lifted) and cook in the microwave at Power Level 5

   Certain foods cook best in the microwave at lower power levels.

   Different microwaves have different settings. See your microwave manual (or look it up online) to learn how to change your microwave’s power level.

   For many microwaves: enter the cook time, press the “Power” (or “Power Level”) button, and select a number between 1-10. Other microwaves may require selecting the Power Level first, and then entering the cook time.

   Microwaves list power levels in different ways. Here’s a guide to help you adjust:

   PL 10 = 100% = High (default)

   PL 9 = 90% = High

   PL 8 = 80% = Med-High

   PL 7 = 70% = Med-High

   PL 6 = 60% = Medium

   PL 5 = 50% = Medium

   PL 4 = 40% = Med-Low

   PL 3 = 30% = Med-Low

   PL 2 = 20% = Low

   PL 1 = 10% = Low

   You will know if the power level has been successfully changed if you hear periodic changes in the microwave’s tone after it begins cooking.
   

   for 3-4 minutes, or until the custard has barely set and jiggles uniformly when gently moved like flan. If the custard looks too soupy in the center, add 30 seconds at the same power level until barely set, but be careful not to overcook!
3. Top with chopped or crumbled gim and sesame seeds. Drizzle with sesame oil and enjoy.
