Instructions

  1. Use a Microplane or clean spice grinder to grind the dried shiitake mushroom into a powder.
  2. Add the shiitake mushroom powder and all of the other ingredients into a blender, food processor, or beaker. Puree the mixture until smooth. It should have the consistency of a beaten egg. If the mixture is too thick, add water a little at a time until it's the right viscosity.
  3. Add a few teaspoons of oil to a small bowl. Fold up a quarter of a paper towel into a small pad, and soak it in the bowl of oil.
  4. Heat a non-stick tamagoyaki pan or an omelet pan over medium-low heat until hot. Use the oil-soaked paper towel to wipe every interior surface of the pan.
  5. Pour enough of the tamagoyaki mixture into the center of the pan to coat about half of the pan, and then quickly swirl it around the pan to create a thin, even layer.
  6. Let this cook undisturbed until the edges of the sheet start to brown. The mixture is gooey when lightly cooked, so it is essential to thoroughly brown each layer to give it the right texture. Use an oiled spatula to roll the sheet up to one side of the pan.
  7. Wipe the pan down again with the oiled paper towel and then add some tamagoyaki mixture and swirl it around to coat the pan.
  8. When the edges start to brown, roll the Tamagoyaki beginning from the side with the previous roll.
  9. Repeat the last two steps until you Tamagoyaki is the desired size. Next, transfer the tamagoyaki to a plate or cutting board and let it cool completely before cutting it.
