Kohakutou is a Japanese dish that originated from Okinawa. This dish can be made with many different types of seafoods, but it typically consists of tuna or salmon.
Add water to your pot and bring to boil. While waiting for the water to come to a rolling boil, crack two fresh eggs into separate bowls and begin beating.
Once boiling starts, stir vigorously until the mixture reaches 165℉ temperature. At this point, pour the hot water into a mixing bowl. Be sure not to add cold water because that could cause the eggs to curdle.
When the water is ready, slowly drop in the beaten eggs one at a time. Make sure to keep stirring constantly so that the eggs don’t stick together.
After adding the last egg, continue to mix the dough until it forms a sticky ball. If you let it sit too long before cooking, the balls won’t cook properly.
Remove the dough from the bowl and roll it into a rope about ¾ inch thick. Then cut the rope into equal pieces and place them onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Now that everything is prepared, preheat the oven to 400℉. Cook the kohakutou for 15 minutes.
