Children of the Sea meets Children of the Sky (Egg on Egg, a Karasumi Love Story)

Oh there are so many ways to use karasumi (dried cured mullet roe), that briny, delicious gift from the oceans. Today it tops my breakfast to elevate my first meal of the day into decadence…

Ingredients

  • 1 slice of Homemade Hokkaido Milk Bread, toasted (recipe here) alternatively, a slice of baguette or sourdough works too
  • Butter
  • 1 egg (duck or chicken), sunnyside up, over easy, or scrambled
  • 1 tablespoon thinly shaved Karasumi/bottarga
  • Thinly sliced scallions for garnish
  • Thinly sliced tomato (optional)
  1. Toast the bread until slightly crispy, and butter top side.
  2. Place thinly sliced tomato (if using) and egg on top of the bread and sprinkle thinly shaved karasumi/bottarga on top.
  3. Garnish with scallions.
