Konnichiwa:)
Have you ever tasted Tamagoyaki?
Tamagoyaki , or Dashimaki is a Japanese rolled omelette which made of eggs, sugar, and soy sauce.
When dashi-soup is added to the egg mixture, it is called dashimaki tamago.
It is a classic dish especially in Japanese bento lunches.
We normally cook it in a rectangular omelette pan, & roll it as it cooked several times.

but if you don’t have the omelette pan you can use a round pan instead.
I found a video of how to make Tamagoyaki in a round pan ?
Huh…Do you still feel it looks difficult?
If you do, I’ll tell you a secret!
Actually Tamagoyaki itself is very flexible right after it’s cooked.
So that even you don’t roll it, you can reform it by using a bamboo mat or cooking sheet :D!
Here are the ingredients.
2 eggs
1 tbspoon of sugar
2 tbspoon of hot water + 1 teaspoon of Dashi soup powder
1 drop of soy sauce
Step1 Mix the eggs gently (do not bubble!)
Step2 Pour Seasonings mixture to the egg.
Step4. pour the egg mixture over the frying pan, & make an omulet!
at this stage, don’t worry about the shape ?
Step 5. Put the omulet on a cooking sheet or a bamboo mat, and roll it gently.
Shape the egg when it is still hot.
Let it stand for 5 minuted to cool down.
Step 6, After 5 minutes, open up! the shape looks perfectly like a proper Tamagoyaki :D!
Please cut it into a piece as your desidesd size.
This method is not a proper way, but if you think you can’t make a Tamagoyaki due to lack of skill,
Please start from this easy way.
Actually each home has their original Tamagoyaki recipe,
so seasoning can be varied.
If you don’t like a sweet one, you can replace to a pinch of salt.
Also, you can put whatever you want in a Tamagoyaki.
Such as Cheese,
Tamagoyaki is a really something which reminds me my childhood.
When I went to school trip, my mom often put it in the lunch box.
Even we grow up, we still like to have it in our lunch box.
Especially when cherry blossum season come to Japan, many people go to picnics under the cherry blossum trees, called “Ohanami”.
Sadly here is no sakura ;(
Since it’s spring now I’d love to make a lunchbox with my favorite Tamagoyaki & go to picnic!
Next thing on my to do list ? hhh
