Kakitama-jiru is a Japanese-style soup made with a dashi (soup stock) base and finished by adding beaten eggs. The name “kakitama” (literally “scrambled egg”) refers to the cooking method, where the eggs are stirred in while being poured, creating soft, fluffy ribbons throughout the soup. In addition to tofu, we will also add onion and broccoli to add nutritions. This is also a perfect soup for babies around 9 to 12 months old so I’ll show you how to eat it in a way that both children and adults can enjoy by simply changing the seasonings.
