Our cookbook of the week is Japanese Home Cooking by teacher, noodle maker and grain activist Sonoko Sakai. “If you go to a Japanese okonomiyaki place they’ll really pile it up with bonito flakes and lots of sauce. Additionally, Sakai adds, the recipe produces fairly small pancakes; if you prefer larger okonomiyaki, simply divide the batter by four rather than eight. Pour 1/4 cup (60 mL) of the batter to make a 6-inch (15 cm) pancake (double if you prefer larger pancakes). From Japanese Home Cooking by Sonoko Sakai © 2019 Sonoko Sakai.
