Title: Japanese Rice Dessert or Porridge
Categories: Japanese Rice Dessert Breakfast Blank
Yield: 1 Servings

3/4	c	Rice; cooked, hot
2	ds	Soy sauce
1	ts	Brown sugar
1		Egg yolk

Add soy and sugar to the hot rice. Stir in. Add the egg yolk and stir. The heat of the rice will cook the yolk. As a dessert cut back on the soy, double the sugar and add crushed nuts. Top with fresh or poached fruit or berries if desired.

[I learned this recipe from a Japanese friend in my college days; the proper name of it is long forgotten. The fruit embellishment is my own idea and not traditional. In Japan this dish is served mainly to children and invalids. It is simple but tasty.] Jim Weller.
