JAPANESE OMELETTE Tamagoyaki

Why I Love This Recipe

Tamagoyaki is a type of Japanese omelette, which is made by rolling together several layers of cooked egg. These usually are prepared in a rectangular omelette pan called a makiyakinabe.

There are several types of tamagoyaki. It is made by combining eggs, and sometimes sugar or soy sauce. Additionally, sake and mirin are used in some recipes.

Tamagoyaki is served around the world in the form of nigiri, and also appears in many types of sushi rolls. In Japan, it is also served as a breakfast dish and in other preparations. As part of a sushi/sashimi dinner tamago is usually taken as the final course, in essence a dessert bite.

In Japanese, it's 卵焼き or 玉子焼き, literally "grilled egg", also called tamago or dashimaki (Dashimaki Tamago ダシ巻き玉子焼).
