Sandwich Ingredients
- 10 fresh eggs
- 6 slices of soft bread
- 1 tsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp sake (or mirin)
- 2 Tbsp whole grain mustard sauce
- 2 Tbsp mayonnaise
- A little water (for consistency)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, crack 10 eggs into a bowl. Add 1 tsp of sake (or mirin), 1 tsp of granulated sugar, and a little water. Add the water gradually to avoid making the egg mixture too thin.
Step 2
Using a whisk, gently beat the eggs until the yolks and whites are well combined. Be careful not to overmix, as too much foam can affect the texture. Then, for a smoother and more uniform texture, strain the egg mixture through a fine-mesh sieve. This step helps avoid a lumpy texture and results in a silky rolled omelet.
Step 3
Pour the strained egg mixture into a lightly oiled pan heated over low heat, and cook it into a thick, Japanese-style rolled omelet. Let it cool slightly, then slice it into portions suitable for the sandwich.
Step 4
Trim the crusts from the 6 slices of bread using a knife. Removing the crusts makes the sandwich softer and easier to eat.
Step 5
On three of the bread slices, spread 2 Tbsp of whole grain mustard sauce thinly. On the other three slices, spread 2 Tbsp of mayonnaise evenly. Make sure the sauces cover the bread surface uniformly.
Step 6
Arrange the thick slices of Tamagoyaki (rolled omelet) on top of the bread slices spread with mayonnaise. Fill the bread generously with the prepared omelet slices.
