The most challenging aspect of making tamago is heat control. Chef Peter turns, flips, and rolls the tamago, controlling the heat, for it to become the desired texture based on visual and experience.

If you notice, there’s a golden hue to the rice of nigiris and rolls at M Sushi Cary. It is because of the special akasu vinegar that we used during the seasoning process. Akasu vinegar is made with sake lees, aged and fermented for months.

Scoring is the act of making shallow cuts on the surface of the fish, usually across the skin and flesh. These cuts are typically shallow to avoid damaging the structure of the fish but deep enough to carry the flavor.

In Japanese culinary practice, precision and technique are highly valued. A single, clean cut minimizes the damage to the delicate flesh of the fish.
