Okay, so it looks like our main character eats her egg on the side, but the cookbook recipe was for the raw egg in the rice, so I did both. And of course, miso soup. Ready to start the day!

Eow. Raw egg
The dangers of raw eggs are generally the dangers of getting eggs covered in feces from sick chickens. I only buy pasture raised eggs from small farms, which minimizes the risk of illness (although as a kid I ate plenty of raw cookie dough from regular eggs without incident soo…) This specific chicken egg is from a chicken raised on a natural pasture with at least 108 square feet of space per bird and as much time outdoors as they would like all year.
Some people just can’t stand the texture though - the egg cooks some in the rice, but there is still some of that runniness for sure.

Fun fact, the primary danger in uncooked cookie dough isn’t the eggs - it’s the flour. You’re far more likely to get an E.coli infection from uncooked flour than salmonella from uncooked eggs.

Shame the article doesn’t mention you can solve this by just baking the raw flour on its own on a sheet tray!
Thanks for th explanation!! Its really informative. Im one that cant the texture! :D
I love making this as a little protein snack sometimes.
If anyone needs a recipe for this, Kenji’s is great!

Note the egg isn’t quite raw as it should cook a little from the heat of the rice.
Since I don’t quite like super goey eggs, I usually pour the whisked egg in the warm pan I reheated the rice in (heat off), and stir quickly before serving for it not turn into scrambled egg.

You probably need to stop taking gastronomic inspiration from cartoons
Tamago kake gohan (卵かけご飯, “egg on rice”) is a popular Japanese breakfast food consisting of cooked Japanese rice topped or mixed with raw egg and soy sauce.
It’s also really tasty, and egg production is extremely well regulated in Japan, so there really isn’t a risk of raw eggs being dangerous to eat there. For people with their own chickens, this also isn’t a problem, as you’d likely know if your bird was sick.
Why?
Forget that person, I’m just waiting for you to get to spirited away.
Bro knows fuck all about Ghibli and it shows.
I usually do natto and an egg (fried or raw, depending on how I feel). If I feel extra fancy, I throw in some shiokara in the mix—add some nice, salty ocean flavors to the slimy goodness.
