Step 1
Crack eggs into a bowl and whisk until just combined, then stir in water, 0.25 tsp salt, and a pinch of white pepper.
Step 2
Pour the egg mixture into a 2-cup ceramic or glass bowl (or a shallow dish that fits in your steamer). Scatter wood ear mushrooms on top.
Step 3
Bring water in a steamer or pot with a steamer insert to a boil over high heat. Carefully set the bowl on the steamer rack.
Step 4
Cover and steam for 8–10 minutes until the egg is set around the edges but still slightly jiggles in the center when gently shaken.
Step 5
Drizzle soy sauce and sesame oil over the top, then scatter green onion on the surface. Serve immediately with rice.
