- vegetable oil
directions
- Cooking time is actually UNKNOWN and will likely vary with stoves!
- Stir flour, water, salt, and sugar thoroughly. Add baking soda.
- Heat the Taiyaki-ki (fish mold) on both sides briefly so it is warm, not in intense heat.
- Spread the oil in the Taiyaki-ki and pour the mixed ingredients into the Taiyaki-ki filling it half way.
- Put Azuki beans over the mixed ingredients in the Taiyaki-ki.
- Pour additional mixed ingredients on Azuki filling the Taiyaki-ki.
- Close the Taiyaki-ki and heat both sides turning the Taiyaki-ki over at intervals.
- Let it cool and enjoy the Taiyaki.
- Additionally, a Taiyaki-ki, or fish mold, is needed to make Taiyaki. You can purchase one through yahoo stores.

This is not a good recipe. It makes a dough so dry that there is not way it could pour into the mold, which is how authentic taiyaki is made. I will just ask my mom for the real recipe, which I should've done in the first place.Reply
