Hi Taiji Thank you, for the “easy” recipe. I watched a couple of other TH-camrs, but your has the best description for the batter and how to actually cook it.
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.
This is the most DETAILED and THOROUGH explanation of every step of the process I've seen on YT!! Thank you sooooo much! 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
i just got a takoyaki electric maker... never made it before, but looking forward to trying tomorrow! Was looking up how especially with octopus as its an ingredient i've never used. This video was very helpful!
What a nice little recipe. I've got a Takoyaki iron but recipes looked too difficult but I'm going to try this with prawn pieces. Octopus is hard to get where I live. I'm a new subscriber for you. Thank you from New Zealand.
I'm quite late to this video but thank you for taking it slow, being thorough and offering options (especially the simpler ingredient breakdown at the end). Wonderful tutorial and can't wait to see how my first batch comes out with your help!❤
I made this dish using your recipe and I must say it tastes great even if I don't have any experience cooking this kind of dish. Thank you so much I appreciate the tutorial.
Just got a Takoyaki pan, exactly this one, and I'm gonna try out Takoyaki this weekend :) Thanks for this amazing guide and recipe. It's really easy to follow and nice explanations of what to use or what to substitute!
The first time I had takoyaki was last week in Japan town in SF. Now I’m hooked❤ I had what they called negoyaki, similar to what you made with the spring onion. Great snack !
I did this recipe today for first time and it turned out amazing!! The takoyaki was round and perfect, but it took me a long time to cook it, maybe I had the fire too low, but I didn't wanna burn it. I did not use nori, ginger and tempura bites, and I used 8 flour tablespoons. I put a bit of salt to the mix, and I used sunflower oil instead of sesame. It was so good. We finished eating it in 3 minutes 😂 I will try doing many and freezing them.
@おぽぽ-y3o I don't have tempura flakes and I don't have normal tempura neither hahahaha I realized that the inside isn't supposed to be hard, so it wasn't undercooked.
Thank you so much for this video!! I have made takoyaki 4 times since watching and the balls are getting better shaped each time 😊 I like the batter recipe that you shared with the soy sauce! It's nice 💯🙏
Weizenmehl :D somehow didn't expect that. Thanks for the great video! I am so close to biting the bullet and getting a pan myself. Takoyaki must be the single best streetfood I ever had the pleasure of eating
Looks real delicious, thank you for the easy to find ingredients recipe, I plan to make this at home. Tho I was wondering how to make those tempura left over, but I’m just going to search it up
Thank u very much. I love takoyaki, but i can only found it in 'Liberdade' neighborhood (São Paulo, Brasil). Never found it at Japanase restaurants here, only with a old lady and her family at that neighborhood. I hate cooking, but since i dont find a place to buy, here i am
Thank you! It seems super delicious. Question: since I have celiac and can't eat wheat (or anything containing gluten), is it possible to do it with a gluten-free flour mix?
My son always order this dish in a Japanese restaurant we go to regularly. Now we know how it is made. Thank you for showing us how it’s done.
You’re welcome
I very much appreciate how you explain where all your dishes come from. Love the history and how simple you make everything seem.
Agree 100%. He is so informative and explanatory, but in a quick and no-nonsense way! ADHD heaven! LOL

天かすが有ればたこ焼きに是非入れて下さい🐙
天かすは出汁の役目でもあるからです。
たこ焼きにごま油を使うのは彼のオリジナルです。たこ焼きの本場大阪では菜種油を使います。
🌽コーンやチーズを入れても美味しいです。

Absolutely loved your video thank you for sharing
I was not expecting to come across such an awesome video, looking for takoyaki.
You seem like such an interesting person. I hope this finds you well.
I love takoyaki with more vegetable so cool woh yuunmy yehey now i know thank so much oishi 😋😍
Wow yummy
i just watched a man eat 16 takoyaki balls along with a bowl of rice. my stomach could never
I would finish those in a couple of minutes 😂
if you do calorie counting without sauces it's only 475 calories for takoyaki and that is with 10g of oil which is probably too much
He just eat 1 bowl, meanwhile im here with maybe 4-5 bowl to be full with that serving 😅
That’s an appetizer for me 🤤
Weizenmehl :D somehow didn't expect that. Thanks for the great video! I am so close to biting the bullet and getting a pan myself. Takoyaki must be the single best streetfood I ever had the pleasure of eating

たこ焼きにチーズ🧀やコーン🌽を使用しても美味しいです
hello. Takoyaki pan bought today. i will do the recipe tomorrow. thank you. sorry for my english...🙏
It looks like it would be a good recipe with cold water lobster as well.
We don't have the picked ginger so I mixed some ginger paste into the batter. It smells so delicious and tastes just like from the shop
Wah looks delicious, want to cook it but i don't have that pan/? 😅
w0w yum! my fav❤
Well i know what im ordering on amazon tonight 😂
Bánh rất thơm ngon, cách chia sẻ chi tiết, cảm ơn bạn rất nhiều❤❤
Thank you for this video
Thank u very much. I love takoyaki, but i can only found it in 'Liberdade' neighborhood (São Paulo, Brasil). Never found it at Japanase restaurants here, only with a old lady and her family at that neighborhood. I hate cooking, but since i dont find a place to buy, here i am
I do not own a gas oven, but I hope a portable gas oven can work to cook this recipe. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! It seems super delicious. Question: since I have celiac and can't eat wheat (or anything containing gluten), is it possible to do it with a gluten-free flour mix?
Thank you so much
I tried this in Tokyo. I was expecting a firmer squid type texture but the octopus was very soft. The texture here looks firmer though.
