The towns of Hokkaido - Muroran Quail eggs produced in Muroran are a little bigger than average eggs in Japan.
"Tamago kake gohan (Egg over rice)" is a popular Japanese comfort food. Steaming cooked rice is topped and mixed with a raw egg, this feels so familiar. Chicken eggs are commonly used, so many people don't know the taste of raw quail eggs. I am amazed at the mellow and slightly sweet taste of the quail egg yolks used in Tamago kake gohan.

The secret to producing delicious eggs is in the feed and breeding method. Lactic acid bacteria and natto bacteria are mixed in with the grain feed to remove any bad odors. Moreover, breeding is carried out without administering any medicine, which is rare in Japan. Since hatching, breeding, egg laying and product processing are all managed and performed by Muroran Uzuraen, the eggs are bacteria free. The egg production is safe and secure.
"In addition to breeding, we make pudding during the busy season" says Section Chief Shishido Yutaka.
"Muroran Uzura No Purin" using fresh quail eggs is very popular. The secret is not only the deliciousness of the eggs themselves, but also the carefully selected ingredients from Hokkaido, such as fresh milk delivered from the next door ranch every morning. Enjoy the pudding in two layers- the top creamy, the bottom is a jelly-like fluffy texture with a rich egg taste.
Although a dessert, "Muroron Uzura No Purin" is packed with nutrition. 90 g serving, 430 yen
Quail eggs contain more vitamin B12, iron, zinc, retinol and folic acid than chicken eggs. They are reported to activate the brain function, and to be effective in the prevention of anemia and colds. Muroran Uzuraen offers three types of pudding with pumpkin produced in Sobetsu, with lily bulbs produced in Makkari, or with Danshaku potatoes also produced in Makkari. All very delicious, highlighting the flavors of the vegetables.

Recently, Seasoned Uzura Eggs have become a common topic of discussion. The quail eggs are boiled in a broth with Yayan seaweed collected on the beach of Muroran.
