Takoyaki, a Japanese appetizer, consists of fried wheat batter with boiled octopus in the center. It is served as balls, often on the end of a toothpick. Special pans are used to cook the appetizer. If you are committed to cooking them in the authentic Japanese way, you should buy a takoyaki grill.
Instructions
1. Determine a size for your takoyaki grill. Grills make 15 to 20 balls at a time. The cups are commonly 3 cm in diameter, and the balls are 1 1/2 inches across after being cooked.
2. Consider other features of the takoyaki grill. Most are made in a heavy cast iron and are electric. Some have handles. They are commonly 9 inches across.
3. Look online for websites that sell takoyaki grills such as Amazon and eBay. The grills are not found in most stores in the United States. Some of the grills are sold with takoyaki recipes, turning picks and oil brushes.
4. Go to a Japanese restaurant to ask where you can buy a takoyaki grill. In Osaka, Japan takoyaki grills are found in practically every home and in many stores. A Japanese restaurant that serves takoyaki can give you a lead on places in Japan that can ship the grill to you.
