The "Fried Takoyaki" from Kasama City in Ibaraki Prefecture has been a beloved traditional dish in the local area for many years. True to its name, it boasts a rich flavor with octopus mixed in, offering a crispy texture when freshly fried and a delightful umami flavor that spreads from within.
The origin of this specialty dish can be traced back to the days when octopus fishing was prosperous in Kasama. As a result of the abundant catch, the local residents came up with a way to encapsulate the flavor of octopus, leading to the creation of this beloved dish. The taste passed down through generations in the local community has not faded over time.
It is said that the freshly fried Fried Takoyaki is the most delicious. The hot crispy texture and the flavor of octopus oozing from within are exquisite. It is a common practice to enjoy it with soy sauce, but it can also be savored with mayonnaise or sauce according to personal preference.
