Instructions

  1. 1

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, and salt until well combined and slightly frothy.

    ~2 min
  2. 2

    In a small bowl, whisk together the white miso paste and mirin until smooth. This is your glaze.

    ~1 min
  3. 3

    Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat. Add a small amount of vegetable oil and spread evenly.

    ~1 min
  4. 4

    Pour about one-third of the egg mixture into the pan. As the egg begins to set, carefully roll it up from one side to the other.

    ~3 min
  5. 5

    Push the rolled omelet to one side of the pan. Add a little more oil if needed, then pour another third of the egg mixture into the empty space, allowing it to flow under the rolled omelet.

    ~3 min
  6. 6

    Once the new layer is mostly set, roll the first omelet over the new layer. Repeat this process one more time with the remaining egg mixture.

    ~3 min
  7. 7

    Once the tamagoyaki is fully cooked and rolled, carefully remove it from the pan onto a cutting board. Brush the surface generously with the miso-mirin glaze.

    ~1 min
  8. 8

    Cut the glazed tamagoyaki into 1-inch thick slices.

    ~1 min
  9. 9

    Toast the slices of milk bread until golden brown.

    ~3 min
  10. 10

    Assemble the sandwiches by placing two slices of the glazed tamagoyaki on one slice of toast, then topping with another slice of toast.

    ~1 min

Tips

  • For an even more beautiful tamagoyaki, use a square omelet pan designed for this purpose.
  • Leftover tamagoyaki can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and is delicious served cold or gently reheated.
