dig wells in the ground and build robotic systems to store your two
wheelers underground - safe from harsh weather and naughty thieves.
A walk through the rice paddies to Konomiya shrine, with our sun hat and
umbrella. All the other people out for a walk were grandmas and
grandpas since everyone else is either in school or at work!
はしまき (Hashimaki) is Okonomiyaki wrapped around a pair of chopsticks. It is a popular festival food in Kansai area.
If you have a collection of disposable chopsticks, this is a great recipe to use them all up. hehe
--------------------------------- Hashimaki
Difficulty: Easy Time: 20min Number of servings: 5
Necessary Equipment: 5 disposable chopsticks
Ingredients: 1 egg 1/2 tsp. Dashi powder 150ml water 100g (3.5oz.) cake flour - I think you can use all purpose flour 100g (3.5oz.) shredded cabbage cooking oil A ((optional)) * 2 tbsp. Tenkasu (crunchy bits of deep fried flour-batter) * 2 tbsp. chopped green onions * 2 tbsp. shredded cheese * 1 tbsp. Beni Shoga (red pickled ginger) B ((toppings)) * Okonomiyaki sauce * mayonnaise * Katsuobushi (bonito flakes) * Aonori (green laver)
Directions: 1. Mix Egg, Dashi powder, and water in a large bowl. Sift in cake flour and mix well. 2. Add shredded cabbage and A (optional) and mix well. 3. Heat cooking oil in a large frying pan. Spread 1 ladle of batter on the top half of the pan in an oval shape. 4.
When the edges begin to dry, place a pair of chopsticks, roll the
Okonomiyaki, and set aside. When you have made the other 4, put them
back in the pan, cover, and cook on low for 5 minutes until done. Then
cook the other side until golden brown. 5. Top with B and enjoy!
Instead of the cake flour & Dashi powder, you can use Okonomiyaki powder! It tastes much better in this way.
