TAMAGO KAKE GOHAN  HISTORY OF TAMAGO KAKE GOHAN Well, it's just hot rice and raw egg...is there any history to it? Indeed there is! Tamago kake gohan was originally created by a journalist named Kishida Ginko in 19th century. Eggs began to be eaten in Japan in the Edo period (1603-1867), but at this time they were still an expensive food and it was not until the modern era (late 19th century) that eggs became a common household item. It is believed that he encouraged people around the area to make the tamago kake gohan he invented. According to a magazine published in 1927, the seasoning was grilled salt and chilli pepper! It's completely different to what it is now! After the 1950's, when eggs became common item again, the dish attracted attention for its taste and nutritional qualities and became one of favourites on the breakfast table.
