What Are Korean Steamed Eggs?

Korean steamed eggs (often served at Korean BBQ restaurants) are soft, fluffy eggs that are gently cooked using steam. Traditionally, they’re made with eggs, broth, and seasoning, then steamed until they puff up into a silky, custard-like texture.

This version boosts the protein by adding egg whites and low-fat cottage cheese — without sacrificing that signature texture.
