Instructions
- 1
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, and salt until well combined and slightly frothy.
~2 min - 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the white miso paste and mirin until smooth. This is your glaze.
~1 min - 3
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat. Add a small amount of vegetable oil and spread evenly.
~1 min - 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
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
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
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
Cut the glazed tamagoyaki into 1-inch thick slices.
~1 min - 9
Toast the slices of milk bread until golden brown.
~3 min - 10
Assemble the sandwiches by placing two slices of the glazed tamagoyaki on one slice of toast, then topping with another slice of toast.

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.
