What Is Okonomiyaki?

Okonomiyaki is a delicious Japanese street food that’s loved throughout the country. Like a cross between a crepe and an omelet, this savory Japanese pancake is first fried on a flat teppan griddle to a perfect level of crispiness. It’s then loaded with various toppings including Japanese mayonnaise, aonori (dried green powdered seaweed,) pickled ginger, katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes), and okonomiyaki sauce. This sauce uses vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, and shiitakes, and tastes like a thickened Worcestershire sauce.

Other versions range from plain batter to mushrooms or shrimp inclusions.
