You’re going to need a tamagoyaki pan for this. You could do without but it’s not going to be a perfect rectangle. I got one off of amazon for under $20 and I think it’s really worth getting one because this is such a staple side dish to serve with any sort of Japanese home cooking. I use white soy sauce and dashi for color purposes but if you only have dark soy and dashi that’s okay.

Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- 1 tbsp white dashi stock
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp mirin
- Pinch of MSG
- Whisk all ingredients together well and strain.
- On very low heat, apply cooking oil in an omelette pan or nonstick pan and wipe off excess oil. Add in 1/3 of egg mixture and when halfway cooked, roll forwards.
- Reapply oil, add egg mixture, roll, repeat.
- Let the omelette rest for a minute so the insides cook.
TIP: You can add anything in the middle, sometimes I like to do layers of nori, vegetables or meat.
