Japanese Deviled Eggs

Think of this appetizer as deconstructed deviled eggs, with both a spicy sauce and a seasoning mix for dipping.
How to Make It
Step 1
1
Put quail eggs in a medium pot and cover with 2 in. cold water. Over high heat, bring to a boil, then simmer 5 minutes. Drain eggs and transfer to a bowl of ice water to cool. Crack shells all over, return to water, and let sit 2 minutes (this loosens the shells). Peel eggs.
Step 2

Combine mayonnaise, wasabi to taste, sesame oil, soy sauce, and salt in a small bowl. Put furikake in another small bowl. Serve both with eggs for dunking.
