How to Make Takoyaki (Recipe) たこ焼きの作り方 (レシピ)

Takoyaki is a popular Japanese dumpling made of batter, diced octopus, tenkasu (tempura scraps), beni shoga (red pickled ginger), and aonegi (green onion), topped with okonomiyaki sauce, mayonnaise, aonori (green laver), and katsuobushi (bonito flakes).

When I was small, I cooked takoyaki once a month at home. One day, my mom gave me the takoyaki pan we used at that time because we all grew up and no one cooks it at home. So, for this tutorial, I used the pan she gave me but it was so old that the batter stick to the surface and didn't came out nicely... but anyway, I hope you get an idea!!!

Hello, ochikeron! (I'm sorry, it's me again >_<;;)

I love how resourceful you are with the brush thing~ I'd like to ask if it would also be okay to be used when brushing yakitori sauce on skewered chicken while I'm grilling them? (it's probably a stupid question, but I'd like to hear your opinion)

よろしくおねがいします！\（＾＿＾）/

@10726209 sorry for this late reply. but it is not a brush as you can see, so not for yakitori X( i hope you can find a brush for it. i recommend silicone brush. it is pretty easy to wash :)
