As you may know, takoyaki must be crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside, and it takes time (almost ten minutes!) to make such takoyaki.<br />In Osaka, it's common practice to have takoyaki with two toothpicks, not chopsticks. I tried a few times last night, and then I switched to my chopsticks.Hiroyukihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07075672590298671343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3101980281470446262.post-39198148521874722672009-09-16T07:08:10.067+09:002009-09-16T07:08:10.067+09:00Uncle N: Yes, the type of pan you mentioned can b...Uncle N: Yes, the type of pan you mentioned can be used to make takoyaki, as someone has mentioned before here:<br />http://forums.egullet.org/index.php?/topic/36914-the-takoyaki-topic/<br />Thanks for your links.

Your takoyaki looks amazing!Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15790932725913110515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3101980281470446262.post-79574934976126185712009-09-15T23:21:22.975+09:002009-09-15T23:21:22.975+09:00I happened to stumble into your blog and enjoyed i...I happened to stumble into your blog and enjoyed it very much. In US or other countries, you could probably use an Ebelskiever pan to make takoyaki. I am a Japanese who has been living in US in the past 30 years and like to cook including Japanese food. I started my own food blog recently as well as wine tasting blog (this one is several years old).
