Hashimaki / Okonomiyaki on Chopsticks / 箸巻き


Nowadays we can easily see peoples selling Okonomiyaki in pasar malam (night market) , but I hope after this post, they are going to sell this Hashimaki or Okonomiyaki on chopsticks ^_^.
According to here, Hashimaki is a typical festival snack from the Kansai region, it is similar to Okonomiyaki. Therefore, it will also often called Okonomiyaki on chopsticks. Translated mean "hashi" = chopsticks and "maki" role or something rolled.


 
Before I can prepare the Hashimaki, i have to collect enough of the disposable chopsticks. So every time I went to tapau (pack foods from outside) , I insist the seller to give me chopsticks, earlier I always refused for disposable chopsticks.

  8. Awesome! I have been preparing okonomiyaki every Sunday (at least once a week) for such a long time, with different versions but I have never seen or heard of hashimaki! I will certainly test it very soon (by the way I have a new okonomiyaki version to post soon too! the possibilities are endless).

  31. You can prepare this in two ways, Hiroshima style or Osaka style. While the more mainstream Osaka style fries the mixture and toppings all together inside the pan, in Hiroshima the constituents are not mixed up, but rather cooked separately and only then combined.
