A recipe for basic kinshi tamago, easily made in a frying pan. Without the hassle of flipping, you can create a fluffy and beautiful shredded egg omelet using residual heat and steaming.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • 3 eggs

Seasonings

  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tsp Cooking Sake (Rice Wine)
  • 1/5 tsp salt
  • Vegetable Oil (as needed)

Steps

  1. Crack 3 eggs into a bowl. Mash the yolks with chopsticks and mix by cutting.
  2. If there are large pieces of egg white, scoop them out with chopsticks and cut them.
  3. Add 1 tbsp sugar, 1/5 tsp salt, and 2 tsp Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) and mix.
  4. Strain the egg mixture through a sieve. For a smooth finish, perform this step and use a spatula to thoroughly strain any egg white or mixture remaining on the sieve.
  5. Heat a little Vegetable Oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture in several batches, spreading it quickly to cover the entire pan.
  6. Once the egg mixture is mostly set, turn off the heat and immediately cover with a lid.
  7. Place the bottom of the frying pan on a damp cloth to cool it down. While covered, let it steam for about 1 minute to cook the egg. This is the key to a beautiful golden color without flipping.
  8. Remove the lid. If the surface of the egg has solidified, it's done. If not fully cooked, re-cover and let the residual heat finish cooking.
  9. Cut the cooked kinshi tamago into your desired width, stack the pieces, and thinly slice from the edge.
