Learn how to make not-sweet Tamagoyaki, a simple Japanese rolled omelet. This tasty egg dish is easy to prepare and perfect for breakfast, bento boxes, or side dishes!
Make the Egg Mixture: In a bowl, beat the eggs. Add salt and soy milk, then mix until well combined.
Strain through a sieve: Strain the mixture through a sieve 2 to 3 times.
Prepare the Pan: Heat a tamagoyaki pan over medium heat. Add a little vegetable oil and use a paper towel to wipe off any excess, leaving a thin coating.
Cook the 1st Layer: Pour one-third of the egg mixture into the pan. When the surface is still slightly soft, but the bottom is cooked. Roll the omelet from the far edge toward you, then push it back to the far edge of the pan.
Cook the 2nd Layer: Add a little oil if needed. Pour half of the remaining egg mixture into the pan, lifting the rolled omelet slightly to let the mixture flow underneath. Once the surface is almost set, roll the omelet again and move it to the back of the pan.
Cook the 3rd Layer: Pour the rest of the egg mixture into the pan, repeating the same process as the second layer.
Finish and Serve: Remove the tamagoyaki from the pan and let it cool slightly. Slice into even pieces and serve.
