» Pat Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Posted January 9, 2009 Little, delicious dumplings filled with octopus and other stuff. They're awesome. <3
Icarus Posted January 9, 2009 Report Posted January 9, 2009 Since I never tasted it I can't say anything good or bad about it =3
» Pat Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Posted January 9, 2009 You put takoyaki sauce on them ( the brown one in the picture ), then mayonnaise ( see picture ), Aonori ( the green stuff on it) and katsuoboshi ( dried bonito flakes ). <3
Icarus Posted January 9, 2009 Report Posted January 9, 2009 The only word I understood from what you said is mayonnaise XDDDD
» Pat Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Posted January 9, 2009 Lol.... Aonori is green seaweed & bonito is... well a fish. ;D
Icarus Posted January 9, 2009 Report Posted January 9, 2009 So its kinda like Sushi only in a meatball shape xD
Icarus Posted January 9, 2009 Report Posted January 9, 2009 It'll be surprising but I never ate sushi QQ
Amitsu Posted January 10, 2009 Report Posted January 10, 2009 how did they come out round!? from the picture the maker looked like it would come out.. as a cylinder or w/e =0
Maiku Posted January 10, 2009 Report Posted January 10, 2009 you see the toothpick like thing you use it to spin the stuff as it cooks to make it round.
Amitsu Posted January 10, 2009 Report Posted January 10, 2009 of course the super azn replies. lolol j/k j/k i still dont get it. it looks like they're in cups
» Pat Posted January 10, 2009 Author Report Posted January 10, 2009 They're in cups. It's like this; you put the batter into those cups, wait a while until they turn brown on the outside, then turn them around, so the batter fills the bottme of the cup again and oh-wonder you have a ball. ;D & they're not disgusting. ): They're like... heaven. <3
Amitsu Posted January 10, 2009 Report Posted January 10, 2009 still so confusing D: aren't cups in a cylinder shape? =[ unless the cup is round, but would that make it rotate? o.o
» Pat Posted January 11, 2009 Author Report Posted January 11, 2009 Let the takoyaki cook for a few minutes until the bottom has started to harden. Trying to turn them when the bottoms are still soft will damage the appearance and texture of the takoyaki! Before turning, drag a wooden or bamboo skewer (or metal skewer if using a cast iron pan) between the little molds in a grid pattern to cut/separate the batter on the surface of the pan. Pierce the bottom-front of the takoyaki (the 4 o’clock position) with the skewer and use a circular scooping motion to roughly flip the half-ball over, so that the uncooked batter flows out into the mold to form a ball. Tuck remaining batter bits into the ball with the skewer. ;D
Devotion Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 No that looks delicious. I've learned to never judge a food my how it looks. I made you ramen, you make me some of these?....please? *hungry*
Maiku Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 lol look at the way its cooked D: the bottom cooks first and like the thing is soft still but maintains it's shape so you can turn it around and stuff. You don't have to put octopus and stuff you can put almost anything you want. ^^
» Pat Posted January 11, 2009 Author Report Posted January 11, 2009 Yep exactly. :D. Like cheese & ham & vegetables & everything you want. :D. & Ohya devo. (:
