Nonstick Omelette Pan Japanese Tamagoyaki Egg Pan Rectangular Small Non Stick Frying Pan 8” x 6”, Green

These pans work really well. Rather than traditional sweet and cold tamagoyaki, I use them for delicate, rolled multilayer omelets with typical American-style ingredients: mushrooms and cheese, served hot. Absolutely delicious!

If you enjoy Japanese omelettes, this pan works well. So well, we've considered purchasing two more, one each for each of our grown daughters, who come home missing Ma's cookin!

I like to make breakfast sandwiches similar to McDonalds' Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuits or Egg McMuffins. And I'm picky about appearances, so I like to make the egg portion of the sandwiches into a neatly-folded rectangle or square. I've been using a small frying pan to prepare the eggs, but that gives me a round 'sheet' of cooked egg to fold up, and those rounded edges aren't what I'm looking for. Then I discovered this type of pan, with the rectangular shape, and it seems like the way to go!I've not yet used it, but I've taken a preventative step to try to avoid melting of the handle, which is listed in some of the reviews as a negative for this pan. Hopefully, my simple modification will add to the longevity of this helpful kitchen gadget.Before assembling the handle to the pan, I cut a pieces of an insulating material to fit between the pan and the handle. The material is from a small rubber or silicone mat that's designed to protect a surface from something hot placed upon it, like a hot coffee cup. It's about 1/16" thick. As you can see from the pictures, it fits nicely between the handle and the pan, and should do an excellent job of protecting the handle from excess temperatures that may cause it to melt or loosen.I also used a small Bakelite washer to similarly block excess heat from the pan to the attaching machine screw, which should provide additional heat isolation.Now -- I'm getting hungry! Let's make that breakfast sandwich!

Works well. The bottom didn't stick at all, but I did use plenty sprayed oil. It's smaller than I expected but does make a perfect average sized tamagoyaki with practice. My first attempt is absolutely not great.... However, I'm aware that daiso, the Japanese dollar store, sold cast iron tamagoyaki maker for maybe 3 dollars, that while this is fancier and prettier, it's a lot more money.....so up to you whether you want to visit the store first or order this one.I'm not a fan of the handle. The washer somehow fell into the connector piece, and I can't get the handle to "attach" without gap. I feel that can be a crazy spot to hide bacteria and am not thrilled about that...
