I tried 'Donbei TKU Tamagokake Udon' which is a perfect combination of soy sauce and eggs with a fragrant oyster flavor, and you can enjoy the egg-topped rice as a finishing touch.

Nissin's cup noodle brand 'Donbei' has released ' Nissin Donbei TKU Tamago Kake Udon ', which is eaten by mixing eggs with chewy udon noodles, on Monday, July 15, 2024. By cracking two eggs and mixing them with the udon, it becomes a rich-tasting 'Tamago Kake Udon (TKU)', and you can even enjoy the final egg-topped rice with the remaining sauce, so I was curious about what it would taste like, so I actually tried it.

Looking at the names of the ingredients, you can see that the sauce contains soy sauce, oyster sauce, seafood extract, oyster seasoning, shiitake extract, truffle seasoning oil, etc. The toppings are sesame and seaweed.

The calorie count is 389 kcal per piece. When eating, the calorie count of the egg should be added.

I need to drain the water later, so I only open the lid up to the dotted line. Inside were small packets of soy sauce and furikake.

Remove the small bag and pour hot water up to the inside line, then heat the soy sauce on top of the lid and leave for 5 minutes.

Wait 5 minutes and then drain.

Crack the 2 prepared eggs into the drained noodles.

Mix the eggs and udon. Instead of trying to mix the eggs and udon all at once, it's easier to mix the egg yolks and whites together to some extent before mixing them with the noodles.

Next, add the sauce and stir, then top with furikake and it's done.

Trying it straight away, the soy sauce, with its luxurious flavor of oysters and the aroma of truffles, and the mellow taste of the two rich eggs, are a perfect match. The smooth udon noodles are mixed well with the soft egg and soy sauce. The subtle aroma of sesame and seaweed adds a nice accent, bringing out the flavor of the soy sauce and eggs. Another nice point is that by mixing it with the eggs, it is quickly cooled to a comfortable temperature to eat. However, because the soy sauce has a very strong flavor, it may be too strong if you limit the egg to one.

I finished it in no time. I was told that if I poured the sauce left at the bottom over rice, it would turn into a bowl of raw egg on rice, so I decided to try that too.

Place rice in bowls and pour remaining sauce over top.

The egg on rice is ready in no time.

When I tried it, the rich flavor of the egg soy sauce was a perfect match for the fluffy rice, and I couldn't help but eat more and more. I thought the seaweed and sesame seeds were added just for the final egg rice, and I was able to enjoy a high-quality egg rice with the flavor of oysters.
