Tamago–dofu is a Japanese savory egg custard that usually served cold as an appetizer. The texture is cold, smooth, soft and light, so it’s good for the summer dish.
Making and tasting Tamagodofu is similar to chawanmushi, When we eat the chawanmushi, we can enjoy combination with various ingredients. On the other hand, there are very few ingredients, we enjoy smooth texture and dashi flavor of tamagodofu.
