Tamago… does this look right?

1. Yes

2. Tamago and Akami looks fine the big question is how did it taste????

3. Looks more than alright!

4. Tamago is egg in Japanese in case you don’t know.

5. They’re just serving the premade frozen stuff. It’s pretty ubiquitous. Only high end sushi restaurants take the time to make their own tamago.

   Sometimes a lack of rolling indicates baked, but that’s not the case here.

6. Yeah that’s probably the frozen stuff. I know a lot of chefs that just buy that because it’s just easier and nobody seems to care if they take the time to make it themselves. Basically not worth the effort for them

7. Yes it’s cooked in a square deep pan that creates a block of a mixture of egg soy sauce and other stuff

8. As others have said, you’re right. This is the premade/frozen one. A lot of places do this since tamago becomes a pain in the ass to do normally if you’re selling a high volume. If you’re new to sushi I wouldn’t judge tamago based on this piece alone, done right its in a whole different ballpark and one of my favorites.

9. How is eveeyone still indulging the spicy tuna troll

10. The troll is back

11. Looks right to me.

12. Looks like eggs

13. Rolled? For someone so new to sushi you sure seem to know exactly how everything should be prepared. How was their spicy tuna?

14. A Google image search would have saved you a lot of time

15. Everyone, don’t even bother commenting telling him its right the way it is

    This guy is just a massive troll and will argue for hours on end about what he thinks tamago should be and won’t accept anyone’s answers

    He did this for spicy tuna rolls, now he’s doing it for tamago

    Save yourself your time and sanity and just ignore the post and move on

16. yeah, so that looks totally normal for most places

17. It’s frozen not fresh

18. Yes , it is at the right side of the photo.
