A beautifully colorful tamagoyaki (Japanese rolled omelet) flavored with dashi and soy sauce.
This savory version isn’t sweet, so it pairs perfectly with rice and works great as a side dish or for bento lunches.
The addition of finely chopped carrots and green onions adds both texture and color, brightening up your table.
