Ingredients
Eggs
The main ingredient in tamagoyaki is, of course, eggs. Make sure to use fresh eggs for the best results.
Dashi
Dashi is a Japanese soup stock made from kombu (seaweed) and bonito flakes. It adds a savory and umami flavor to the tamagoyaki.
Sugar
A small amount of sugar is added to the tamagoyaki to balance out the savory flavors and give it a subtle sweetness.
Soy Sauce
Soy sauce is another essential ingredient in Japanese cuisine and adds a salty and rich flavor to the tamagoyaki.
Salt
A pinch of salt helps to enhance the flavors of the tamagoyaki and balance out the sweetness from the sugar.
Instructions
Step 1: Whisk together the eggs
Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them together until they are well combined.
Step 2: Add the dashi, sugar, soy sauce, and salt
Next, add the dashi, sugar, soy sauce, and salt to the beaten eggs and whisk until everything is well incorporated.
Step 3: Cook the tamagoyaki
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly oil the surface. Pour about 1/4 cup of the egg mixture into the pan and swirl it around to create a thin layer. Once the edges start to set, use a spatula to roll the egg towards the opposite side of the pan. Oil the pan again and pour another 1/4 cup of the egg mixture, making sure to lift the rolled egg and let the mixture flow underneath. Repeat this process until all the egg mixture is used.
Step 4: Roll and shape the tamagoyaki
Once all the egg mixture is used, continue to roll and shape the tamagoyaki until it forms a rectangular shape. Press down on the tamagoyaki gently with a spatula to ensure it is tightly packed.
Step 5: Slice and serve
Remove the tamagoyaki from the pan and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing it into bite-sized pieces. Serve it as a side dish, or enjoy it on its own as a tasty snack.
Pro tip: For a more visually appealing tamagoyaki, add a layer of nori (dried seaweed) to the egg mixture before rolling.
Now that you have the traditional Japanese egg roll tamagoyaki recipe, you can impress your family and friends with this delicious and simple dish. Experiment with different fillings such as cheese, ham, or vegetables to create your own unique version of tamagoyaki. Happy cooking!
