茶碗蒸しChawanmushi: "Tea Cup Steam"

Now, I want to introduce to you guys Chawanmushi(茶碗蒸し), which is a Japanese egg custard dish that placed inisde a tea-like container. Click here if you want to find out more information about the dish.
The Rilakkuma teacups are really cute, right? But that is not my main point XD
What I want to do is draw your attentions to the ingredients of the dish.
According to the video, the dish is made of ingredients which have unique Japanese names, such as Shimejiシメジ, Kamaboko蒲鉾 and Mirin味醂. All these add values to the uniqueness of the dish that it becomes a truly Japanese dish. I would like to try this dish, which is an important part of Japanese food culture, if I have chance.
What do you think about the dish?
