Originally from Japan, takoyaki are small dumplings filled with tender pulp, cooked to perfection in a frying pan until crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
This recipe, developed by our chefs, introduces a twist with the use of our new vegetable gelling agent, Gracila Gel to create a Soy Gel topping that further elevates the taste and presentation of the takoyaki. The inclusion of this innovative ingredient adds a unique dimension to the dining experience, offering a smooth texture and intense flavour that perfectly complements the pulp and batter.
Takoyakis represent the essence of Japanese street cuisine, known for its creativity, bold flavours and precise techniques. This recipe captures the essence of this cuisine, offering a delicious and surprising bite that will delight any adventurous palate.
