- Cooks Notes: You may be wondering why we add cornstarch to the boiling water. Remember, we are trying to recreate the conditions of an Onsen (hot spring) which has an ambient water temperature of around 145°F. Since we are heating our water to boiling (212°F at sea level), we use the cornstarch to keep the heat from convecting into eggs too quickly.
- Cooks Notes: While a cooking time of 8 minutes works for me, it may not work perfectly for you. We live at 13 feet above sea level. If you are at a higher altitude, you probably will have to adjust the cooking time accordingly. Basically you will need to experiment. It would be great if folks could post their altitudes and cooking times on here to help others.
