Kakitamajiru (かきたま汁) is a light and comforting Japanese soup made with dashi broth and delicately spun eggs. Simple, quick, and nourishing, it is traditionally served as a starter or as an accompaniment to a Japanese meal. Its silky texture and umami flavor make it a classic everyday dish in Japan.

Ingredients

500 ml dashi (Japanese broth)
1½ tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon mirin
2 eggs
1 teaspoon potato or cornstarch (optional)
1 tablespoon of water (if using cornstarch)
A few finely chopped spring onions (optional)
Salt, if needed

Instructions

Bring the dashi to a simmer in a saucepan. Add the soy sauce and mirin, then adjust the seasoning if necessary.
Mix the cornstarch with the water, pour into the broth while stirring gently, and simmer for 30 seconds.
Lightly beat the eggs. Reduce the heat, create a slight whirlpool in the soup, and slowly pour in the eggs in a thin stream.
Cook for 30 to 40 seconds without stirring, until you obtain fine egg strands.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with green onions if desired.

Recipe notes

For a more nutritious version: add small cubes of silken tofu just before pouring in the eggs.

Vegetarian version: replace the dashi with kombu (seaweed) and shiitake mushroom dashi.

Gourmet finishing touch: a few drops of toasted sesame oil or a pinch of yuzu zest before serving.
