For anyone who wishes to get a Takoyaki pan but has an electric or indication stove: You can easily get a dutch 'poffertjes' pan (they are basically pancake balls). They are easier to find and usually cheaper than takoyaki pan and are basically the same. Get the type that you can plug in (like a waffle iron), it's so versatile! When I have people over I use it to make appetizers like olive bread balls etc.
Aren't they wayyy too shallow to put any kind of stuffing inside?
takoyaki is easy to make ingredients are just hard to get
its hard to get only if you dont live near asia alot of the islands near asia (in melenesia and Micronesia) including our favorite over looked U.S territory Guam have alot of asian influence there for i already own all of these ingredients and i can go to my local super market for more dashi or i can buy takoyaki ... like anywhere.
also dashi is very bitter i dont actually like it
@@rfb1497 what dashi are you using. Powder dashi should not taste bitter...
@@FBR2169 its a liquid dashi, you have to shake before use.
@@rfb1497 it's a concentrated dashi that you need to thin out with water
Next time you are in Japan, visit Osaka for the takoyaki (and other street food). The tokoyaki in Tokyo (when you can find it) is over-cooked and more about the toppings that getting the crispy:soupy ratio right. In Osaka they are a prominent fixture of the street food scene (the only large city in Japan that really has street food). And the desired consistency is so soupy in the middle that you can’t even pick them up with chopsticks. You have to spear them with a toothpick and drop them in your mouth like a baby bird eats a worm. I have burned my mouth too many times to count on these little balls of joy. I cannot find a convincing version outside of Osaka.
My thought exactly.
Thanks for the tip I will go to Osaka if I ever get the chance to go to Japan
Totally agree. Osaka style!!
Osaka`s street food is mega deeeliiishhh!!!!
I live in California and I have to spear the ones I get so I guess they really know what they're doing 😂
Hello, I am a Filipino but proud to be working for 10 years in takoyaki foods located in our country. I can make 15 balls in just less than 2 minutes!
Anung mga ingredients na ginagamit mo ma'am ?
Pwedi mag ask mam kung saan po makabile ng takoyaki na lutuan na yn ... Gosto ko prituhan ng itlog pls
@@malvarbutihen7032 sa lazada at shopee meron takoyaki pan
Must try also ruclips.net/video/PL7FfTNIUxk/видео.html
those last words tho...
So yeah, I made these tonight. Came out AMAZING. Better than the frozen pre-cooked ones I usually buy. So easy to do, no special pan needed. Thanks so much!
Oh shit it was me! Dude this video had the hype at the beginning and the idea of takoyaki with no pan is so smart! I am definitely going to try this some time in the next couple of days. I dont wanna buy a takoyakipan so expensive for one thing lol
You can't spare $16? "Amazon Takoyaki Pan" If you want it, you might as well want it right.
Are you looking at solid gold pans? The most exspensive ones are barely $20
That's almost 100$ on my country
@@aniki91344 The cheapest one I could find on Canadian Amazon is $30. Maybe I can find one cheaper at an Asian supermarket, idk.
Did you try it?
Love it, but instead of adding all the fillings to the batter and mixing it all together, instead add your fillings to the batter filled ice cube trays.
That way, each individual one gets a nice portion of octo and everything else.
I've had takoyaki in Kyoto. It was stuffed with just octopus, topped like an okonomiyaki. The inside was fascinating, very gooey, half-liquid even. It was absolutely amazing, especially when consumed near a shrine during a summer downpour. Please, take me back do Kyoto
Mood.
Dude, awesome. Again blown away by the quality of your vids. I'm hungry.
In Osaka, they add cheese in their takoyaki batter. It tastes very good. I like to add grated parmesan rigiano to my takoyaki batter.
I suddenly want one with mozzarella
first time i had it there was cheese on top soooooo gooooood 😋😋😋
"Who puts hot dogs in their takoyaki?"
Me, planning a Hanami/American campfire combo party with dango, hot dogs, and smores (and hopefully takoyaki): "Oh no."
A recipe that even Haachama could follow
but how else could she torment luna across an ocean if not by butchering her favorite food
this is takoyaki. haachama's is 新takoyaki
Holy crap, I found a fellow degenerate in one of Andongs Videos!
Love the idea! But the middle should've be a bit creamy, maybe less time in the fryer might do the work?
I'm not sure if thickening the batter was a necassary step, since it should be frozen all the way through before frying and that should help with a creamier texture. It's worth experimenting if you're wanting a more traditional takoyaki!
What makes it creamy soft was that they added Japanese mountain yam , supposedly the only yam you can eat raw also the exact ingredient causing the melty texture
Also no baking powder since not cooking that through is a disgusting flavor. Maybe not using wheat flour would make a difference? Now I want to try this, but with a different kind of flour and possibly a hotter oil?
Gear-it! Nah, I've made it creamy without the mountain yam before. Apparently you can sub it with potato starch, but I've personally never tried it.
Must try also ruclips.net/video/PL7FfTNIUxk/видео.html
Astounded by your creativity. This was so well made.
Hi Andong , I am settled in the Middle East, and watching your video gave me the idea. Thank you.
Ich hab dich nicht gekannt bis ich das Video mit Malwanne gesehen habe jetzt liebe ich dich
good takoyaki is supposed to be gooey inside, yours is solid
Its because he deepfried it.its supposed to be lightly toasted
I actually prefer mine more cooked. I can't do the gooey halfcooked pancake texture!
@@healinggrounds19 some people are put off by the gooey inside which is understandable.You can do the pancake version 😊
@@janxylah8733 thank you. I will give my half of the stuff that is gooey. Deal? I will even pay for the beer. Shots are on you though.
@@healinggrounds19 now I want shots....
lol i saw this and thought, "huh that place looks familiar..." checked my google maps timeline, and sure enough alps was the place my friend took me when i was in tokyo too!
I love your energy! I might be tired but I hear your intro & Im right back at it again!
I keep finding myself in the situation of watching your videos at night when there's no way of making any food and it's frustrating how hungry I get xD Also I have a local asian store nearby but they have nearly none of the stuff you mention in your videos ;__;
I love this, trying it the soonest. Thanks Andong!
Thank you! I love takoyaki and wanted to try making it at home, but I don't have the specialized pan. I'll definitely give this version a try!
Okay so I'm in a small city in Michigan, USA and I LOVE takoyaki. This is genious. Thank you so much for such a brilliant and easy way to make takoyaki at home! I'll be trying this soon!
Wie dieser verrückte Mann Backerbsen nimmt ❤️😂❤️😂❤️
My good friend you, are a GENIUS. I was really wanting to make some and simply don't have/ can't get a pan (I also can't get octopus but I have precooked shrimp I can use) Now I'm so excited I think this'll be fairly easy to do with the ice cube trays
You just earned a like and subscribe! I really wanted to make takoyaki but I didn’t want another gadget or pan in my kitchen. Can’t wait to try this out!
omg. thank u~
i tasted takoyaki once and it was amazing and since then i wonder
how to make these, without these pan (and oven!)
now i know how i could make it :) thx
Oh man.. it is like 2:38 AM right now and I am watching all of your vids. It is amazing how professional you do your videos and how sympathetic you are. I am living in Berlin but traveled almost all over the world. On RUclips you can find that people eat special delicacies from all over the world. What is weird tho is that there is almost no videos about the delicious multi cultural cuisine of Berlin. I saw you video about the doner kebab and I wish you could do more of this videos. Maybe sushi, Taiwanese, French, desserts and so on. Pumped to see what's coming next and if you plan a meet up in Berlin just let me know ;)
@@mynameisandong I am glad that you think the same way like me. There definitely need some more Berlin Food Reactions like Mike Chen, Food Ranger and Mark Wiens do. My recommendations:
- Lon Mens Restaurant (Taiwanese)
- Himmelspagode (Chinese)
- Pamfilya (Turkish)
- Zhous Five Buffet (Asian)
- Atlantik (best Fish in town)
- Alaturka (Turkish)
- Amrit (Indian)
- Dong Xuan Center Pho (Vietnamese)
- The Butcher (Burger)
- El Reda (Lebanese)
My friend, you have just earned yourself a new subscriber. Keep up the great content. 🤓
Looks tasty haha, made me hungry even tho I just ate !
dude i love you. this idea is insane
I have only had takoyaki one time from a food truck in a town I don't get to often (I live in the US so it was totally new to me)....but it was AMAZING! I could eat those things every day and be happy! I really want to try this. I thought the same thing about the pan. I am not an avid cook and I didn't think buying a pan for just one thing I may or may not end up cooking a lot might be a waste of money and space. But this is a great solution! Thank you for this. I'm totally going to try it.
I had one yesterday, the feeling of it has crab meat sUUUPER! delicious
Hmmm I will definitely try this. Thanks!
that looks great! I had this in Osaka once, and yours look about the same. Well done :)
Octopus is definitely my favourite takoyaki filling. But cheese and mayo mentaiko (cod roe) work really well too 🥰
Cant say that I have ever had this before.....I have one of those ebeskeller pans that would probably work amazing. Chili oil video coming out today at 3 est - thanks so much for letting me share your recipe!
I'm pretty sure æbleskiver pans will work well, I can't find one myself though.
No store sells them in Poland aside from online and the imported ones are more expensive than actually buying them in Denmark.
I made my bf cook this with me at 12am to freeze the takoyaki in the freezer to eat the next day aha! lovely video thanks for the great tip!
“Just press buttons and they bring you beer?!” Andong 😂
when i went to japan i found takoyaki everywhere especially near kyoto. first had it in arishyama
this is such an obscenely good idea... i cant believe it worked....
I'm Japanese and I approve!
Thanks for the tips, 1st time cooking and 1st time eating this. Very nice! A friend who has been to Japan to try it said it was spot on! Can't wait to get to Japan to try this.
Absolut gute Aussprache und richtig gute Idee :D ...
Ich glaub ich bleib ne Weile bei dir.
Wow, amazingly well done!
Other than the octopussies I think I have everything on hand to make this too, including the kombu and bonito to make my own dashi. Although, I'll be using panko, toasted and coated with a bit of oil if I can't find the tenkasu, and my ice trays are an unfortunate football (that's Uhmurican-hand-egg mind you) shape.
I don't know why, but despite being a big fan of, and having made okonomiyaki several times, I've never even thought to try making takoyaki before. Thanks for the inspiration.
Okay gotta try that out.
Genius🙌🏻🙌🏻
This is exactly what I wanted to know! I don't want to buy a device or cast iron pan just for this. I adore fair food indulgence once in a while but not enough to commit to it (ew). I'd love to be able to give it a try, maybe with shrimp or something (ebiyaki is a thing already) since I can't get octopus at my local store, being as inland as you can be in the US. I'm excited to try this!
Wow thanks for this! I actually made low carb takoyaki and made a frozen one too with egg plastic container and our big ice tray. It worked but not as good as this. Uploading tomorrow of our takoyaki version
Amazing. It's my new favorite channel
You're a genius!!
wow! dankeschön für das Video :-P genial! Takoyaki sind sooo ein geiler Snack
*Sees the title for the video
Me: Wait, that’s deliciously illegal.
Way easier than being the "takoiaki flipping technique" ninja, thanks for the advice!
phew! killed it again andong! :O i began guessing if you would use ring molds or SOMETHING to shape the batter in-pan, but this sounds promising. I'm really trying to lay off deep fried/shallow fried foods, though (for safety, economic, and health reasons). How do you think this could be modified into an oven recipe? Since oven-baked croquettes have become a thing as of late... In any case, I'll try it out!
What about a muffin pan? With those little disposable paper muffin/cupcake liners?
Squid muffins!
As much as I love the taste of octopus, my favourite filling is deep fried octopus shaped hot dogs and scallions. They have to be really little though, like you cut them into 1" pieces and then cut the 4 legs on one end, then deep fry them until crispy, and then that's what you put in the Tako-Sausage-Yaki
Thats a damn great idea
You've just saved me the hunt for a takoyaki pan!!!!
Wow that's pure genius
Pretty unique takoyaki you got there! Liked your solution, even though you didn't make dashi from scratch! If I were to do the same, I'd probably make a slightly thicker batter, freeze it until above milkshakey, and use a melon baller to drop right into a frying pan to shallow-fry.
this is pure genius
Love the method love the idea of ice trays to keep them uniform and hold a shape HOW EVER after 11 years of cooking izakaya foods you gave me hives when you started your smaller takoyaki before your larger cubes that being said Love the channel keep it up my guy
A restaurant Flipped Story, in Tilburg, Netherlands, is where I first had takoyaki and I was BLOWN away. It's my favourite Japanese food, and they had fillings made of octopus and shrimp(??) and they were both delicious. I still dream of making it myself sometime
Trying this today. Wish me luck!!!
Thanks dude!!! I'm trying this right now!!!
So, on my birthday my familiy and I went to a Japanese reataurant and I was so happy when I saw that they had Takoyaki on the menu. So, I immediatly ordered some and I wasn't sure if I would like it, as I don't really like sea food (I do love sushi tho xD). But when I tried it I was absolutly blown away! It was soooooo amazing. I've wanted to try takoyaki for such a long time, because I saw it so many manga. I can only recommend it, it's so great! And now I have a recipy. Thanky ><
Brilliant!
Omyghad your heaven sent thank youuuu 🙏
Wow, thank for this.... No need to buy takoyaki pan.. 😍😍😍
That's clever ! I wonder if you can get the same result my with an airfrier :D
I always get the frozen ones and microwave them for like 1-2 minutes until kind of soft and then crisp them up in some hot oil. If you don’t overcook, dress them up with bulldog sauce, kewpie Mayo, bonito flakes, and some of that dried seaweed powder if you want and they are amazing and have the perfect creamy texture with nice chunks of octopus. Best part is, it only takes about 5 minutes start to finish for awesome takoyaki
By the way, tenkasu is actually really easy to make. You just need to make tempura batter, then use a chopstick to drizzle it into a pan with a lot of oil. Then you can break it up into smaller pieces if it's too clumped up.
Thanks for the tip!
Brilliant!! Because I did not want to a pan either. Thank tou
Ocean fairy dust! 😄 Love it!
thanks for the recipe and solution for those who don't have takoyaki pan.. like me😂😂 some people just don't get it.. i don't understand why is it so hard for them to understand simple thing like this.. 🤦🏻♀️
You are smart, I'm impressed by the solution you found out :)
Genius!😮🌟
Hey AnDong, love your videos! I have one New Year's challenge for you:
I tried so many times to make hand-pulled noodles at home - however, whatever I did, they would tear the moment I tried to pulled them. I tried different flours, many different ratios of ingredients... However, I always failed.
So my challenge is: can you manage to make them at home?
Silly question, but did you rest the dough enough? Gluten needs to develop.
Also lye water seems to help (i just baked baking soda to make kansui)
@@alexgade4512 In addition to that, using scalded flour (flour mixed with boiling water), or better-yet using water roux (boiled flour), to get a higher-hydration flour, which to be stickier and stretchy, might also help with that. You can research yudane / scalded flour (flour mixed with boiling-hot water) and tangzong / water roux (boiled flour) on youtube.
As I replied to the person who replied to you, you could try using scalded flour (flour mixed with boiling water), or better-yet using water roux (boiled flour), to get a higher-hydration flour, which to be stickier and stretchy, might also help with that.

Thank you for the wonderful video of how to make a very novel takoyaki 👍
I made a version using surimi instead of octopus (octos are too smart to eat, imo) and they turned out fantastic! Super easy too!
Man you're so cute,you printed the comment and the way you cut it is so....perfect
I love takoyaki. Dude what you made not even close.
343 dislikes are those who wanted to hear "octopuses" instead of multiple octopus
Looks great! Can’t find the infrared anywhere! Found some of the ingredients on Amazon, kind of skeptical but I’ll give a try! Ingredients are arriving tomorrow😋
I went to that same izakaya 'Arupusu' (Alps) you went to Andong and omg has to be one of the best in Shinjuku. It's so addictive, I ordered like 4 or 5 plates of Takoyaki (as well as everything else on the menu) And the beers were like 150 yen or something ridiculously cheap
That's a brilliant idea
I love takoyaki with prawns and octopus, probably ham and cheese as well!!
how have i not found you sooner
i thought you'll make it in muffin pan. I'll have to try to do it now :)
The pan is easier to get than the ingredients. I got my brother to bring a pan and all the ingredients from Japan but I have no sauce. Any ideas for a substitute for the sauce?
I just got the takoyaki sauce and Japanese Mayo on Amazon.
6:52 - "no pan takoyaki" Oh boy... The figure collector in me has to smile here. :D
I 💙 takoyaki
And now I'm hungry... thanks
clapsss for your creativity
I wanted to try takoyakis myself, but I wondered if I would use my silicon spheres molds for it
This video was the solution, thanks XD
The Japanese have a strange affinity for gooey textures. I found this out, the first time I had takoyaki at a food stall in London. It felt like it hadn't been cooked properly in the centre. Yours look so much better and I'd love to try your recipe.
I also put cubes of melty cheese, Konnayku (better preseasoned), squid(seafood), mochi, kimchi, corns, edamame beans etc
This is not no-pan takoyaki.
This is no-takoyaki-pan takoyaki. Yum!
I love cheese filling on my takoyaki.
Thanks Andong! I want to try Takoyaki but I don't want to buy another pan.
