This was sooo good! Never thought I could make something like this at home. Gonna make it again!
Japanese cooks must have special magic skills. Mine looked nothing like the picture!
Wow, this is the fluffiest omelette I’ve ever made! Thanks for the recipe!
Really? Fluffiest omelette? I tried it, but mine turned out flat. Must be something I’m doing wrong.
I’m so glad you liked it! The secret is in the whisking, right? Fluffy omelettes are the best!
Can you make this without mirin? I don’t have any!
But isn’t mirin like super important for the taste? I wouldn’t skip it!
You can just skip the mirin! Maybe add a bit more sugar instead? That could work.
Um, I think you should explain what mirin is. Not everyone has that at home. Couldn’t find it anywhere!
I don’t get how it can taste good with soy sauce and sugar in it. Sounds weird!
This omelette is great! But I added some veggies and it was even better.
I think adding veggies might change the authentic taste. Not sure if that’s a good idea.
Sounds yummy! What veggies did you use?
Quick and easy! My kids loved it. I will definitely make it again!
I was skeptical about adding sugar, but it really balanced the flavors. A little sweet, but delightful!
I tried making this but it turned into an omelette soup… 😟 What did I do wrong?
Simple and quick! I’ve got kids and they loved it! Maybe add some cheese next time.
I’m glad your kids loved it! Adding cheese sounds like a great idea. Might make it extra yummy!
Honestly, I don’t know about adding cheese. Isn’t that more of a western thing? But your kids seem to enjoy it, so I guess it’s fine?
I followed the recipe exactly, but it burnt really fast. Maybe check your stove temp?
