A tamagoyaki omelet is a Japanese dish made from scrambled eggs mixed with sugar and broth. The thin sheets of grilled egg are layered like a mille-feuille or crepe cake and then folded into a tube-like shape.
Due to the difficulty of controlling the temperature, it is said that those who can’t make a perfect tamagoyaki cannot be considered a master in sushi restaurants. The visual appeal of the omelet is just as important as the cooking technique and taste when it comes to tamagoyaki though.
So, today’s video shows one of my favorite tamagoyaki omlet shop at Tsukiji. Tsukiji market is known for their fresh fish and even as a major tourist attraction for their delicious sushi, but did you know that egg dishes are also famous as a Tsukiji specialty?
There are several Tamagoyaki omelet shops in Tsukiji that each have their own unique cooking methods and selective ingredients. At this shop, you can watch the chef’s grilling skills up close in their glassed-in area like this video shows.
