Choi Kang-rok's Japanese Rolled Omelet

A fluffy Japanese tamagoyaki with a rich dashi broth that flows out with every bite.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Using regular soy sauce will darken the color of the omelet. To achieve a clear, beautiful yellow color, be sure to use soup soy sauce (guk-ganjang).
  • The high broth content makes the batter thin. Using a large pan will result in a thin omelet. To increase your chances of success, use a small non-stick pan suitable for 3 eggs.
  • Rolling the omelet while it's still semi-cooked and jiggly on top will result in a tough texture. The key is to roll it quickly while maintaining a moist, semi-cooked surface.
  • Eating the omelet with a little cool grated radish and soy sauce helps cut through the richness and balances the flavors perfectly.
