π Description: Tamago sushi, sometimes called sweet egg sushi or tamago-yaki, is a Japanese rolled egg omelette made by folding over egg many times as it cooks. This process creates a block of thin layered cooked egg. The rolled egg omelette is then cut into sushi sized pieces served with or without rice. There are many different recipes for tamago. Most tamago recipes include eggs, dashi, Japanese rice vinegar, soy sauce and sugar. Some sushi chefs also include Japanese sake, yamaimo and other secret ingredients. Tamago sushi is usually eaten at the end of a sushi meal to curb the appetite.
π Taste: Tamago sushi tastes slighty sweet and complex in flavor from any additional ingredients. The texture of tamago sushi should be slighty moist, firm yet fluffy and layered but together. Keep in mind, the taste and texture of tamago sushi can vary depending on the ingredients used, how it was prepared and how it was cooked.
π Season: Now that abalone is farmed and naturally harvested, you can usually find awabi sushi year round.
