Step 1
Whisk eggs in a bowl with dashi broth, soy sauce, mirin, and sugar until completely smooth and combined.
Step 2
Heat oil in a 10-inch non-stick or well-seasoned skillet over medium-low heat until a drop of egg mixture sizzles gently.
Step 3
Pour in one-quarter of the egg mixture, tilting the pan to spread it thin and even across the bottom.
Step 4
When the top edges look set but the center is still wet, about 60 seconds, roll toward you tightly using a spatula or chopstick.
Step 5
Push the roll to the far edge. Pour in another one-quarter of the mixture, tilting to fill the empty space, and repeat rolling 3 more times until all egg is used.
Step 6
Slide the rolled omelette onto a cutting board, slice into 6–8 pieces, and serve hot with scallion if desired.
