Tamago

Sushi Tamago



Ingredients


4 Eggs
3 Spoons of Mirin
2 Spoons of Soy Sauce
2 Spoons of Sugar

Making the omelet

Stir all ingredients together to creat a solid batter .Pick up a rectangular pan. Oil it, and cover it with tamago batter, 1cm deep.

After 2-3 min, when the bottom of the omelet gets brownish, use a kitchen spoon to fold the omelet twice. First from the closer end towards the middle, and second towards the far end of the pan. There's no need to flip the omelet, just fold it. Even if the upper side of the omelet seems uncooked before folding, the "inner layers" of the omelet will get done by the end of the process.

Now oil the pan again (or not, depends if you prefer it crispy or oil free) and add another round of tamago batter. Notice that the batter you have just added should touch the omelet you folded in the last step.

Repeat steps 2-3, until you run out of tamago batter.

Now that your omelet is ready, place it on a dry cutting surface, and slice it into 2cm thik slices. you can use it either as a topping for nigiri sushi, or as a filling for tamaki and maki sushi.

Salmon Skin

Sushi Salmon Skin



Ingredients
2 Cups Sushi Rice
2-3 Nori Sheets
A Piece of Salmon Skin
Avocado
Tempura


Making the roll



The following recipe is suitable for both classic type rolls and Inside Out rolls.

First thing we do is making the tempura. This is easy, really - just mix some tempura powder with water, not too much though - it should be thik enough to be sticky. After 1-2 minutes of mixing, the tempura is smooth and ready.

Now you gottaseperate the fish scale from the skin. You simply slide a sharp knife over the skin in a 30 degrees angle - against the direction of the fish scales. When done, dip the skin in tempura, get a good cover - and fry it in deep, hot oil for about 20-30 seconds, any more is simply overcoocking the skin.

All you gotta do now is roll it in your favorite way - cut it to pieces, and serve it with the best brand of soy souce you can find. Trust me here - this dish is much more tasty and impressive than it is hard to make.
