Tamagoyaki With Dashi Food

TAMAGOYAKI (JAPANESE ROLLED OMELETTE)

Steps:

• Gather all the ingredients.
• Gently whisk the eggs in a bowl. It's best to "cut" the eggs with chopsticks in a zig-zag motion; do not overmix.
• In another bowl, combine the seasonings and mix well.
• Pour the seasonings mixture into the eggs and whisk gently. Then pour the mixture into a measuring cup with a spout and handle so that it'll be easier to pour into the frying pan.

TAMAGOYAKI (JAPANESE EGG OMELET) RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the dashi, salt, soy sauce, sugar, and water. Mix until everything is dissolved.
• In a medium bowl, beat the eggs and add the seasoning mixture. Mix until well-combined.
• Heat a tamagoyaki pan over medium-high heat. Brush a thin layer of oil on the pan.
• Pour a third of the egg mixture into pan and quickly swirl to cover the entire pan. When the egg is half-set, gently roll the egg.
• With the rolled egg still in the pan, pour in another third of the egg mixture. Lift up the rolled egg and let the mixture to flow under it. When the egg is half-set, roll the omelette toward you. Repeat with the rest of the egg mixture.
• Slice into bite-sized pieces.
• Enjoy!

TAMAGOYAKI (JAPANESE ROLLED OMELET)

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine eggs, mirin, soy sauce, dashi (if using) and sugar. Whisk until well combined.
• Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a tamagoyaki pan or a nonstick 8-inch skillet over medium. Using a small piece of folded paper towel, carefully wipe the excess oil from the pan and set aside paper towel (you will need it to grease the pan for each egg layer).
• Pour about 3 tablespoons of the egg mixture into the pan and quickly tilt the pan, swirling the egg mixture around to create an even layer. If there are thicker areas, gently poke a small hole at the thickest point with chopsticks and tilt and swirl the pan to cover exposed areas with more raw egg to form an even layer.
• After the layer is cooked, about 1 minute, using chopsticks or a rubber spatula, gently lift the egg edges on the farthest side to loosen the layer's grip. While tilting the pan, carefully fold the egg about 1/4 of the way toward yourself. Continue to fold the egg equally on itself until you have a narrow, rectangular omelet at the edge of the pan nearest you. Reduce the heat to medium-low if the egg is browning.
• Using the paper towel, lightly grease the exposed area of the pan. Pour another 3 tablespoons of the remaining egg mixture into the exposed area of the pan and quickly swirl it around to create another layer. Use chopsticks or a soft spatula to gently lift up the folded omelet and tilt the pan toward you so the raw egg mixture runs under the omelet.
• Once the layer is cooked, gently roll the omelet away from you in three to four flips. Repeat Steps 3 to 5 with remaining three layers, greasing the pan before each additional layer. The number of flips will decrease as the omelet grows in size with each additional layer.
• Transfer omelet to a cutting board or a plate when done. Cut crosswise into four pieces and rotate, cut side up, to show egg layers. (If using a nonstick 8-inch skillet, you can trim both ends of the omelet to make them even.) Serve immediately or chill for later.

TAMAGOYAKI (WITH DASHI)

Steps:

• Crack eggs into an appropriately sized bowl.
• Add the light shoyu, salt, and mirin to the eggs.
• Beat the ingredients together, then add dashi.
• Mix the dashi in lightly. It is important you don't mix too much, or the dashi will lose its flavor.*.
• Soak a paper towel in oil and wipe a frying pan with it, then put your frying pan over medium heat. If you have a rectangular or square pan, use that for best results.
• When the frying pan is hot, pour a thin layer of egg over it. Use your hashi or flipper to pop the bubbles.
• If using hashi, you need to flip or "roll" the egg towards you while gently guiding it with your hashi. Beginners may want to use a flipper, in which case you only need to roll the egg either toward you or away from you. Try not to rip the egg, but just keep rolling if you do.
• Now the rolled egg is on one side of the pan. You can choose to take it off of the heat now, or you can wipe the pan with oil again and add more egg. If so, remember to lift the cooked egg up to let the raw egg under it. Repeat until you have used all of the egg.
• After all of the egg had been used, move it (or them) to a cutting board. You can use a paper towel to shape the tamagoyaki while it is still hot, if you so choose.
• With the long side of the tamagoyaki parallel to yourself, slice evenly, though not too thin. There you have classic tamagoyaki!
• *If you are worried about appearance, this is the point where you would strain the egg through a sieve.

TAMAGOYAKI (JAPANESE ROLLED OMELETTE)

Steps:

• Whisk eggs, dashi stock, sugar, mirin, and soy sauce together in a bowl.
• Heat 1/3 of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add about 1/3 of the egg mixture and quickly swirl the pan to evenly cover the bottom. Start rolling up the omelette from one side to the other as soon as it is set.
• Keep the roll to one side, then add another 1/3 of the oil to the skillet and another 1/3 of the egg. Swirl the pan, ensuring the entire bottom is covered, including around and underneath the first roll. Cook until set. Roll up from the side containing the first roll, so that is now at the center.
• Repeat the process with the remaining oil and egg. Transfer rolled omelette to a bamboo rolling mat. Roll up tightly and allow to cool for a few minutes.
• Unwrap the omelette and slice into 6 pieces. Serve warm or cold.

TAMAGOYAKI

Steps:

• Beat the eggs, sugar, 1/8 teaspoon salt and 4 1/2 teaspoons water in a medium bowl until well combined but not foamy.
• Heat a 7 1/2-by-5 1/2-inch tamagoyaki pan (or an 8-inch nonstick skillet) over medium heat. Fold a piece of paper towel, dip it into vegetable oil and use it to grease the pan.
• Pour in enough of the egg mixture to lightly coat the bottom of the pan, tilting the pan as needed. Cook until the egg is just set on the bottom but a little underdone on the top, about 1 minute. Using chopsticks or a spatula (see Cook's Note), roll up the egg from the far end of the pan toward you. If you are having trouble getting the egg to fold over itself, use your fingers or a fork to help it along. When the egg is rolled up, push it to the far end of the pan.
• Grease the exposed part of the pan with the piece of paper towel. Pour in enough of the egg mixture to lightly coat the bottom of the pan, tilting the pan as needed. Cook until the egg is just set on the bottom but a little underdone on the top, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Start with the already rolled egg at the far end of the pan and, using chopsticks or a spatula, roll the omelet toward you. Repeat the process until all of the egg mixture is cooked. (For 2 eggs in a 7 1/2-by-5 1/2-inch tamagoyaki pan, you'll generally form about 4 layers.)
• Carefully turn the rolled omelet out onto a cutting board (see Cook's Note) and slice crosswise into 3/4-inch pieces. Serve topped with grated daikon and/or a drizzle of soy sauce if using.

JAPANESE TAMAGO EGG

Steps:

• Beat eggs thoroughly in a bowl; whisk in dashi stock, sugar, mirin, and soy sauce until sugar has dissolved.
• Place a nonstick skillet or omelet pan over medium heat. Oil the pan with vegetable oil. Pour a thin layer of egg mixture into the hot pan and swirl to coat pan.
• When egg layer is firm on the bottom but still slightly liquid on top, lift up about 1 inch of the edge of the omelet with a spatula and fold end over remaining egg layer; continue rolling the omelet to the end and push the roll to the edge of the skillet. Oil the skillet again if it looks dry; pour another thin layer of egg into the skillet and lift the roll to let the egg flow underneath the omelet roll. Fold the omelet roll over the new layer of egg, continuing to roll to the end as before. Push omelet to edge of skillet.
• Pour a new egg layer into the skillet, oiling the pan if needed. Roll the omelet over to incorporate the next egg layer into the roll. Pour new layers and roll into the omelet until all egg mixture has been used. Remove omelet to a serving platter and cut into 6 equal pieces to serve.
