For Bento Lunch Boxes (Tofu & Shio-Koji Omelette)

This is a recipe I learned from my mother.
-In Step 1, if you're not going to use the microwave to drain the tofu, place a chopping board on it and let sit for 15 minutes (use a heavy chopping board).
-Adjust the sugar amounts as desired.
-Since it's got a lot of sugar it'll burn easily. Keep a careful eye on it while cooking.
-If using salt please add 2/3 teaspoon. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

For Adult Bentos: Mentaiko Tamagoyaki (Rolled Omelette) For Adult Bentos: Mentaiko Tamagoyaki (Rolled Omelette)
This is a 1-egg mentaiko tamagoyaki, because making a bigger one with a whole mentaiko in the middle as they do at an izakaya (Japanese gastropub) is a bit too much.I mixed up the mentaiko with shiso leaves.The mentaiko is salty, so the egg is on the sweet side. It's very soft and fluffy due to the mayonnaise.I use a small square tamagoyaki pan to make this, so this amount is enough. Recipe by mama deko cookpad.japan -

For those people who want egg in their lunch box but don't have time.The egg comes off the plate really easily when folding it, meaning you don't need oil (which means it's healthy!). If it's undercooked when you fold it, reheat it for another 10 seconds in the microwave.If you use a round plate, your cooked egg will naturally become omelette-shaped.
