Okonomiyaki
Okonomiyaki is a traditional Japanese street food dish, often referred to as 'Japanese pizza.' It originates from Osaka and Hiroshima, where the local variations may differ. The base of the batter consists of flour, eggs, and cabbage, often prepared with various toppings such as bacon or seafood. The secret to the perfect Okonomiyaki lies in the right consistency of the batter and slow cooking, which ensures the desired crispy exterior and soft interior. The aroma and taste of freshly made Okonomiyaki from a hot skillet offer a true culinary experience that reflects Japan's gastronomic traditions.
