Honey Datemaki Rolled Omelet for Osechi
- 4 Eggs
- 1 Hanpen
- 40 grams Honey
- 1 tbsp Mirin
- 1 large pinch Salt
- 1/3 tsp Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Dashi stock
- Put all the ingredients in a food processor or blender, and puree thoroughly.
- Pour this mixture in a mold lined with parchment paper.
- Bake in a preheated 200C oven for 10 minutes.
- Lower the temperature to 180C, and bake for another 10 minutes or until browned.
- Place the cooked 'cake' on an oni-sudare (bamboo mat made from wide bamboo sticks) with the browned side down.
- Peel off the kitchen parchment paper and roll up the 'cake.'
- Or use a regular sushi rolling mate.
- Secure the bamboo mat in 4 places with elastic bands.
- Leave until it has cooled down completely (about 3 hours), and it's done.
- To keep the datemaki, wrap up in plastic and refrigerate.
- It tastes better chilled.
- I don't use a square mold often enough to justify buying one, so I make my own.
- Make a 21 to 22 cm square mold using an opened up milk carton.
- Secure with staples, and cover the surface with aluminum foil.
- To open up the milk carton, don't use scissors but instead carefully peel apart the glued parts.
- This way you'll end up with a piece big enough to make a box with as shown in Step 5.
