Jung Ho-young's Kombu-Flavored Rolled Omelette

A traditional Japanese-style rolled omelette with rich umami flavor, enhanced with kombu broth, shochu, and mirin for a supremely moist and tender texture.

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Avoid pouring oil directly onto the pan—this makes the omelette greasy. Always apply oil thinly and evenly using a kitchen towel for a clean, attractive grain.
  • Beginners should use a smaller, rectangular frying pan instead of a large one—it’s much easier to handle.
  • If the egg mixture is overcooked, it becomes dry and won’t stick together properly. Roll it quickly when the top is still slightly wobbly and runny for a moist, tender texture.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to recreate the soft, sweet, and juicy rolled omelette typically served at Japanese restaurants at home.
  • People seeking a more refined texture and deeper umami flavor compared to regular rolled omelettes.
