Japanese Recipes — Takoyaki

A hallmark of Japanese recipes, Takoyaki originated in Osaka in the 1930s and remains one of Japan’s most beloved street foods. These golden, bite-sized octopus balls are crisp on the outside, creamy inside, and drizzled with Takoyaki sauce, Japanese mayonnaise, bonito flakes, and aonori. Cooked in a cast-iron pan, they capture the lively flavor and spirit of Osaka’s bustling food stalls — a snack that’s fun to make, share, and savor fresh off the grill.
