Introduction

I just got myself a bento box because I always thought it looked like a healthy way to eat. This is a traditional egg dish which has many layers. Fairly easy to make, little sweet, little salty. Can be eaten cold. I just got myself a bento box because I always thought it looked like a healthy way to eat. This is a traditional egg dish which has many layers.

    Tamagoyaki.
    That is the dish you have just described. A japanese rolled omelette, delicious filled or unfilled, but definitely tamagoyaki. It can also be made by simply rolling it. That being said, this recipe is good, but can be made better by adding a splash or two of sake, mirin, or white wine.     - 10/4/11

    Thanks for giving the name, I forgot what it was when I put the recipe up and just haven't gotten around to putting it up since then. And I BET it would be good with those things!
