seaweed – Foodies R' Us

Hi everyone! A friend gave me the idea to do takoyaki for this post, and I thought, “Why not?”. Takoyaki is a popular Japanese snack that you can find in both Japan and Japanese restaurants or shops overseas. They’re shaped like tiny round ping-pong balls filled with octopus. This is the reason why this famous snack is called takoyaki: tako means octopus, and octopus is the main ingredient. The batter consists of flour, eggs, and water. Then it would be cooked on a special hotplate made specifically for cooking takoyaki. Served with mayonnaise, seaweed, bonito flakes, and a special sauced, takoyaki something you must certainly try!

One of the Korean dishes that I love is called kimbap. Kimbap is made from rolling vegetables, rice, and seaweed together. The size of the seaweed nori is huge, and the vegetables are long, so this is why kimbap is long, and people cut it into bite-sized pieces. Vegetables often used in kimbap are perilla leaves, carrots, and radishes. Other ingredients often use in kimbap are:

beef
cheese
kimchi
pork cutlet
ham
crab meat
kimchi
eggs
tuna
fish eggs

Kimbap tends to be short and round, but there some other types that have different shapes. Kimbap is usually served cold, but it’s still delicious. What do you like to have in your kimbap? Comment on the comment section below!
