  • In this video, I am showing how to make Takoyaki, one of the most famous street food in Japan, often seen in TV series, Anime or Manga. In order to make Takoyaki, a special pan is required. The non-stick pan I am using in the video is made by a Japanese manufacturer "IWATANI" and can be purchased through Amazon.
    US: www.amazon.com/Iwatani-Takoya...
    UK: www.amazon.co.uk/Iwatani-Tako...
    Germany: www.amazon.de/Iwatani-Takoyak...
    or search for "Iwatani Takoyaki grill pan" the online store available in your country.
    In my Channel, I show step by step of alternative but authentic Japanese home cooking, which can be made with the ingredients that are easily available outside of Japan.
    Ingredients for making Takoyaki
    Batter:
    - Egg 1
    - Water 1 Cup
    - Flour 7-8 Tbsp

I really appreciate how you walk us through every step of the process, including every single ingredient, their purposes, and their substitutions. I thoroughly enjoyed watching your recipe and your video. Thank you sooooo much again, I can't wait to make this once I get my own pan!!! :)))

    I made it and it was delicious! The recipe worked.
    My take (for future self that wants to remember)
    - I doubled the recipe and mine yielded roughly 24 (my pan was 16).
    - I didn't use octopus (fishballs, cheese, and mushrooms were what I had. I just chopped them to size) and pickled ginger (I added some freshly minced ginger and a light sprinkle of garlic powder instead once the batter was made).
    - Instead of 2 tsp of soy sauce, I did 2 tbsps.
    - The water I used was room temp.
    - I added PLENTY of green onions. I had some leftover mushrooms, so I minced and added with the green onions.
    - I added roughly 1-2 tbsp potato starch (couldn't find cornstarch)
    - I added roughly 1 tbsp sesame oil to the finished batter
    For the oil (the one on the pan) I used a 1 to 1 ratio of sesame oil and veg oil

    Taiji, I’m sorry that my thanks are so long overdue, but thank you very much for your recipe and tips. This is one of my son’s favorite foods, and so I wanted to make it at home since freshly made is always best. I have to admit I was a bit intimidated at first, but I bought an inexpensive pan as a trial run and followed your instructions. After a trip to my Asian grocery store, I was ready to tackle takoyaki. The first few tasted fine but looked ugly, but after a few tries, I got a lot better at it. There’s just something so comforting about the piping hot batter, tender octopus, sauces, and dancing bonito. I’ve made it often for the past year or so. Thank you again for giving me the confidence to try and for an excellent recipe.

    Great video. I love octopus, but have eaten it grilled in a salad. This looks like an excellent alternative.
    Some suggestions:
    Match is consistently used incorrectly in all your videos. Look it up. The word means: a contest in which people or teams compete against each other in a particular sport.
    "a boxing match"
    It’s usually used to convey the idea that the food, sauce or other product goes well with…. That would be a better phrase to use.
    Another good word would be:
    verb
    3rd person present: complements
    add to (something) in a way that enhances or improves it; make perfect.
    "a classic blazer complements a look that's stylish or casual"

    • @torimarshall9599

      If something matches, it goes well with something else. It's akin to saying the two foods or flavors pair well together. His vocabulary choice is fine.

    • @taijiskitchen

      you could, but then it will not have the roasted aroma. its just like putting bread peaces. if you have a chance, fry the panko, then use the fried version.
