How to Make Tamagoyaki (Tamago) – Japanese Omelette Using Yoshikawa Cook-Pal

Tamagoyaki, also known as Japanese rolled omelette, is a sweet-savory dish often served in sushi, bento boxes, or Japanese breakfasts. When made correctly, it has a delicate, fluffy texture and beautiful golden layers.

To achieve restaurant-quality results at home, a specialty rectangular pan like the Yoshikawa Cook-Pal Omelet Pan is essential. Crafted from premium carbon steel in Japan, it ensures even heat distribution and easy release of delicate eggs.

Ingredients You'll Need:

• 3 large eggs
• 1 tbsp mirin (sweet rice wine)
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp soy sauce
• 1 pinch of salt
• Neutral oil for cooking (e.g., canola or grapeseed)

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, beat the eggs gently with mirin, sugar, soy sauce, and salt until well combined.
2. Heat the Yoshikawa Cook-Pal pan over medium heat and lightly oil it using a paper towel.
3. Pour a thin layer of the egg mixture into the pan. Let it cook slightly, then roll it from one end to the other using chopsticks or a spatula.
4. Push the rolled omelet to one side of the pan. Oil the pan again, add more egg mixture, and repeat the rolling process until all egg is used.
5. Once done, transfer the omelet to a bamboo mat or plate, shape it gently, and let it cool for a minute before slicing.
