Make the batter
In a bowl, whisk the flour, eggs, cold dashi stock, soy sauce and salt until completely smooth and very thin, like pourable cream. Transfer the batter to a jug.
- 200 g flour
- 2 eggs
- 600 ml dashi stock
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- ¼ tsp salt
✅ C'est prêt quand : batter is smooth and runs off the whisk like thin cream

Heat the pan
Heat a takoyaki pan (a pan with 12-20 half-sphere molds) over medium-high heat for a few minutes, then brush every mold and the flat surface generously with the oil.
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
✅ C'est prêt quand : oil is hot and shimmers in the molds

The Story Behind the Dish
Takoyaki was created in Osaka in 1935 by street vendor Tomekichi Endo, who added octopus to an earlier batter snack. Osaka, known as 'the nation's kitchen', is famous for konamon, dishes made from flour batter such as takoyaki and okonomiyaki.
Many Osaka families own a takoyaki pan and hold 'takopa' (takoyaki parties) at home.
⭐ Why It's Famous
Crispy outside, gooey inside and topped with savoury sauce: it's the soul food of Osaka.
💡 Fun Fact
The bonito flakes on top seem to 'dance' because the heat from the takoyaki makes them curl and wave.
