This onioroshi is a bamboo grater used for vegetables such as daikon, carrot, and onion.
Its name comes from oni, meaning devil in Japanese, because the sharp teeth look like those of a devil.
When you use an onioroshi to grate daikon, the texture comes out coarser than usual.
In Japanese cooking, we enjoy the subtle differences in texture between ingredients texture itself is an important part of the joy of eating.

Tamagoyaki, the Japanese omelet is one of the most popular Japanese dishes. Its taste changes depending on the region or where you eat it- at home, in a sushi restaurant, or as part of a traditional kaiseki meal. In eastern Japan it’s usually sweet, while in western Japan it often includes more dashi.My mother made hers with lots of sugar- it was so delicious and still a nostalgic taste for me. Nowadays, I cook mine with less sugar and a touch of dashi, sometimes adding tuna, sweetcorn, or nori.
