Tamagoyaki eggs

Grilled egg eggs, heh. Looks delicious!

Is Tamago egg? As in Tamagotchi being an egg based friend.

Yaki is grilled, like Teriyaki?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Yep! Tamago is egg. Yaki is from the verb yaku which means grill in this context. Teri I didn't know, but it is the kanji from verbs that have to do with shining so probably refers to the glaze being shiny.

I knowwww, but with non-english food names I've learned it's clearest just to include a clarification for people not familiar with the food.

You're fine. Just a kind of tongue-in-cheek way to point out what the name of the dish means for anyone passing by and curious.

How…? How did the thin burrito slices stay together while pan frying?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Use a high gluten rice in the filling, and chill the burrito in a sealed container for a couple hours. The condensation from chilling helps the tortilla stay slightly tacky so it will stick to itself, and at the same time it thickens the oils to help promote cohesion. After that it's just a matter of being really gentle, having a very very sharp knife, and cooking it at high temps on just one side.
