Suna-tamago (Sand Egg)
When you peel the shell, the egg white is slightly brownish, possessing a savory aroma reminiscent of smoked food. The yolk becomes moist and fluffy, with a rich flavor similar to a chestnut. This is the mysterious 'Suna-tamago,' a boiled egg steam-roasted by the power of the Tottori Sand Dunes sand. It was born in 2001. The people of Fukube Village (now Fukube-cho, Tottori City) came up with the idea inspired by onsen eggs (hot spring eggs). Eggs wrapped in local Inshu Washi paper are buried in the dune sand, which retains heat, and are slowly steamed at a high temperature of 240 degrees Celsius. This production method was the first of its kind in the country and has reportedly obtained both patents and trademarks. Enjoy it just as it is, with just a tiny pinch of salt. Please try it as a memento of your journey through the sand dunes.
