  Howto & Style

[Cynzttt]

How hot should the pan be? my takoyaki never turns out spherical

[Cooking with Dog]

Drop a bit of batter into the pan and if it sizzles, the pan is hot enough :) Fresh takoyaki have a round shape but they become flat when cooled.

88 people dropped ice in the batter and gave up from there!

Do you think they would serve something like this in hong kong? I will be going there in the summer and this looks tasty!

actually there's an easy solution, that is filter

you can use filter to prevent the ice cube to be dropped
