This is absolutely the best Takoyaki recipe I've ever seen, I'm actually going to buy a pan and try it. Thank you for inspiration and very descriptive steps. You make it look so easy.
I have bought pans and gadgets to make yummy food. They always end up in my cupboard! I try, I fail and to the back of the cupboard it goes! As much as I love Takoyaki, I know I will fail so I won't even attempt buying the pan! 🤣 Best of luck and lmk how it goes. 🤙

Great video again. Only one thing. It's bout the art of the food and helping us try this at home. The music was to up beat I felt like I should be driving or dance but I wanted to watch how chef work is done :) oh I love how a simple propane stove is all is needed. No excuses nice
I've been cooking takoyaki for a year now, gotta say it's one of the best street food i've ever loved. I usually cook twice the batter to make it very round and creamy inside. Usually the cooking time is around 15 minutes until all of them are brown. It's a really fun and delicious dish
It seems in Japanese cuisine, one should have a large pitcher of kombu water in the kitchen or refrigerator ready to go because it's used everywhere and requires so much time beforehand to infuse.
Another great recipe chef Taku. I may need to invest in a Takoyaki pan after watching this. I have been craving these since we had them in Japan so I went and bought some prefrozen ones but my husband complained as there was not enough octopus in them so I was just thinking I will need to see if I can find out how to make them. You must have read my mind!
No worries Desii!! If you got your Takoyaki pan, you can also try to cook with different stuff!!! Adding cheese, using prawn instead, etc. Possibility is endless!!
I remember the first time i had takoyaki, I had ordered something else entirely, got the wrong order, said "eh" not knowing what it was, and was forever changed by how freaking amazing it was.
You can add some more batter to the pan when you do the first turning, easy way to make them look pretty even if you mess up with the turning a bit. Very nice recipe!
Thank you so much for the recipe! This is the most complete and easy to understand one of many I've watched! Especially the part of handling the takoyaki pan is the absolute best for the beginner! Very much appreciate it.
I did my first attempt at takoyaki today. Rolling and shaping the balls is tricky and I messed some of them up, but they still tasted great! I'm going to keep at it, practice makes perfect.
A very similar looking dish is prepared in Tamil Nadu ( A South Indian State) called Panniyaram which is made only from batter sweetened with a traditional natural sugar called Mandavalam ( or Gud in Hindi) and there is no use of any kind of meat. Even the oven used is exactly same. This could be because of a monk called Bodhi-Dharaman ( Daruma In Japanese ) travelled to China & Japan from India and had great impact in spreading of Buddhism and thus also might had some influence of Indian food culture. Thus toriyaki is very similar to panniyaram. I may or may not be accurate but I don't have intention of downplaying Japanese culture.
Awesome recipe. I would have liked to see how to plate them with other sides or sauces. This is my favourite Japanese food channel. Cheers from Canader eh!
Awesome 👍👍. During a lockdown last year I watched 僕はまだ君を愛さないことができる (Boku wa Mada Kimi o Aisanai Koto ga Dekiru). In that drama they were making and eating this all the time. Now I can have a go too 👍👍 … have to get a pan first. It looks absolutely delicious … your neighbours must be in seventh heaven when you cook on the balcony 😃👍.
I’d heard of takoyaki before but I really didn’t know what’s in it- now I can see that it’s kind of similar to clam cakes where I’m from! But with octopus instead of clams, and that perfect round shape instead of a bumpy lump :-)
I tried this recipe and forgot to put the eggs but end up with even more crispy outer skin with soft and more chewy interior.. I kinda like it. So now whenever I made this I divided the batter into 2, half with egg and the other half not. Just to have more fun and options 😁😁
This looks delicious, thank you for sharing it! Do you happen to know if the recipe works with just rice flour? I have celiac disease, so I can't eat any wheat or some other grains.
Nice one . Felt the video ended before you took it off and plated it . Also can you substitute dashi powder instead of kombu and bonito since it's hard to get ?
Yes you can use dashi powder Elvis!! The reason that the video ended before plated was because most people skipped that part in the past videos. So I am trying to find a different type of ending 👍😉
Hey chef, I tried making this and so far it's going pretty well! However, I'm having a little trouble with the sauce. What kind of BBQ sauce would you recommend?
Totally not the chef but I feel like sweet baby rays would be good here, just because it has a really good amount of sweetness in it that would pair well with the batter
I can't get a Takoyaki pan or the bonito flakes where I live 😥 and postage for the pan is so expensive. Can I ask where you live in Australia? I'm your newest subscriber, I love all things Japanese.
Hi ThatGirl711!! I live in Sydney, and using a Japanese grocery called Tokyo mart!! I will attach the link for you!!😉 tokyomart.com.au Or you can check my shopping list in the description!!👍 Hope it will help you!!😌

That pan is very similar to one I use for aebelskivers (pancake balls)
How do you know its the best recipe if u haven't tried it yet?
You got octopus laying around but not a pan?
@Fist Bump nope, staying steadfast on the nope.
"How many dish can you make using a kombu?"
Chef Labo : "Yes"
Chef Labo : "I'll show you the way of the kombu"
Uncle Roger : MSG is the king of flavour
Chef Labo : Let me introduce my Kombu....
I mean, konbu is one of the strongest sources of naturally occuring sources of MSG. Both are correct.
Thank you for watching!!

Sensei, how much MSG does it need if there's no kombu, 1/2 tbp?
I hope your safe over there in Sydney chef!
@@jimzkie5634 Mayne try 1/2 amount of the kombu in the recipe first, and see how it taste like. You can always add later on if needed 👍😉
can i do it by prawn instead of octopus. we are not habituated to eat octopus.

If you can find near your location, there is also liquid version of dashi soup stock sold in bottles. I use it since it is easier and more convenient.
I love takoyaki! One of the best Japanese snacks to enjoy with friends over a few beers along with okonomiyaki. Thanks for sharing chef!
Welcome back Anton G!!
I'm glad that you liked it ☺️
Thank you for the comment👍
Kombu, bonito and octopus...these umami trio 🤤
Welcome back Mr mal!!!

Hope you will try soon!! ☺️

お腹が空いた！！！ うまそう！！ 今食べたくてたまらない！ｗｗ
I love seeing the mobile suits observing. I feel like I'm with them.
Takoyaki is one of my favourite treats.
One day I will make my own :)
Thank you as always for sharing recipes with us
I once tried takoyaki on my school's japanese event, it was damn good. Especially the sauce
Thank you so much for the recipe! This is the most complete and easy to understand one of many I've watched! Especially the part of handling the takoyaki pan is the absolute best for the beginner! Very much appreciate it.
The feeling when you can flex at your friends during takopa is bliss. Thanks for this chef
No worries 4RCH!!
Thank you for the comment👍😉
Nice receipe
One of the few channels I have actually bell notification turned on!
Keep up with great work!
your videos are really great...arigato sensei..
Ok, saving this for all the times I'm going to make takoyaki in the future.
And it's gonna be a lot, I love this stuff!!
I love the little points saying it's ok to not be good at certain parts, it's really encouraging lol. I can't wait to try this sometime
I love Takoyaki, Thanks for sharing !!
Welcome back Yarda!!!
I'm glad to see your comment again 😊
Thank you for the comment👍
I kept waiting for him to add more batter. Neat that it turned into a ball without more batter.
I want to try takoyaki one day... it looks nothing short but amazing
Hi Chef Kabo! Appreciate all the videos you put out! Please do Yakitori next 🙏🏻
Your detailed explanations and visual cues are really helpful! I can’t wait to give this a try.
I did my first attempt at takoyaki today. Rolling and shaping the balls is tricky and I messed some of them up, but they still tasted great! I'm going to keep at it, practice makes perfect.
Yes, make me hungry.
Thank you so much for making this!!!! I love takoyaki so much gonna try this at home
Thank you for this 😉
Love the gunplas 😁
Besides getting the octopus, my biggest problem is obtaining a takoyaki pan. Where is a good place to get one without being charged a lot?
A quick search on Amazon will give you plenty of results. If you have an Asian market, they may sale some, as well.
Go to the Asian market, trust me. It'll be cheaper.
Thank you so much,that’s lots of details
I've always wanted to try make Takoyaki thank you so much Chef!
Those takoyaki looks tasty. I'll try to find a takoyaki pan and try cooking so I won't give my money on takoyaki stores lol.
No worries cybersteampunk!!
My family absolutely loved it!!!
If you are happy to invest for the pan,
you can have it anytime!!👍😉
Great music!
Great stuff :D biggest fan Chef!
Excellent use of animations and tips! I love your style.

The music is the best part for sure.
As soon as I saw the SD RX 78-2 Gundam, I instantly liked and subscribed.
I made this at the park. The recipe was easy to pre prep. I wouldn't change the recipe but I would add toppings.
Awesome recipe. I would have liked to see how to plate them with other sides or sauces. This is my favourite Japanese food channel. Cheers from Canader eh!

Oh what a coincidence New recipe of Takoyaki

I've seen the takoyaki first time in One piece 😍 and I really wanna try it
Hope I'll find the ingredients in my country that looks very delicious 😋🤤

Now I think I'm more interested in watching Gundam than watching chef's cooking 😂 sorry though~
No worries Redza!!
There are many viewers who likes them more than me cooking 😂
Thank you for an another comment 😊

Thank you for sharing your recipe to us!!!! Love thisss.
I want to eat🤤
Now Im motivated to make takoyaki
i'm always curious about this takoyaki, um
This looks delicious, thank you for sharing it! Do you happen to know if the recipe works with just rice flour? I have celiac disease, so I can't eat any wheat or some other grains.
Hi Bunnehwyld!!
Yes you can!!
But it become bit easier to get burn, and very crispy.
So just be gentle with your heat during cooking!👍😉
can this be made with any other kind of seafood? my family won't eat octopus unfortunately but this looks delicious!
You can try shrimp or prawns. It will still taste similar.
By the way, the "tako" in takoyaki means "octopus" and "yaki" means "grilled".
Please consume it, it's the best part of the video!11!!11!
Can you teach how to make oden?? pleaseee i love oden!!!
Now Im motivated to make takoyaki
Go for it Wannnyy !!
Thank you for the comment👍😉

Although I don’t like seafood very much, you made it look absolutely amazing! If I ever want to make takoyaki I’ll come back to this video :D
