For an even sweeter omelet, increase the sugar to 1 teaspoon. A small, rectangular tamagoyaki pan will make the folding process easier, but a non-stick skillet works just fine. Be patient and keep the heat at medium to prevent burning. The key is to cook the egg slowly to achieve a tender texture. Serve the Tamagoyaki with a side of grated daikon radish or ginger for a refreshing contrast.
