I grew up in the Tokyo area surrounded by all kinds of international cuisine. While this has been great for expanding my culinary horizons, it has left me at a bit of a disadvantage when it comes to making certain regional Japanese dishes.
Not least of these is okonomiyaki, Osaka’s famous savory pancake.
When I did have okonomiyaki as a child, it was most often at a restaurant instead of at home as they do in Osaka. I grew up and tried my hand at making this seemingly simple dish, but for so long the results made me cringe.
