dashimaki tamago
Dashi-rich Japanese rolled omelette with a tender layered texture.

About dashimaki tamago
Namiko Hirasawa Chen identifies dashimaki tamago as the dashi-rich Kansai, or Osaka, style of Japanese rolled omelette. This version selects her standard kombu-and-bonito dashi option, preserving its distinction from sweeter Tokyo-style omelettes.
Eggs carry the savoury stock, soy sauce and mirin, with sugar giving a little sweetness. The author describes the result as silky, delicate and almost custardy rather than firm.
Thin cooked layers build into a rolled log, which is sliced across for serving. Grated daikon and an extra splash of soy sauce are the source’s optional garnish; the omelette is presented freshly made.
