I thought I heard a commercial on the radio saying that they were using this for termites... No tenting required.

NOTE:
just want to remind everyone high sodium is bad for our health.. :D
im just concern bcoz its my job..hehe!

I'm probably busting my daily dose of sodium just for lunch. Most restaurants don't care about your health. At least I don't eat too much fat and sugar. Tons of MSG tho. :sweat:

Wow! :bow:

I didn't know you were the one who made them. I thought you took a random picture on the net. They look better than most restaurant on TV. I guess it's not your first time. :thumbsup: BTW, no need to apologize, I'm not eating them by the book either. Most of the time I use a fork. :beaten:

ano... is takoyaki the same as cuttlefish balls? coz i saw some frozen ones in the supermarket today. but since i've had dried cuttlefish before and they taste (and surely smells) like my turtle food i decided not to buy them.

no, it's more like a creme puff w/ a piece of octopus inside instead of sweet creme.

In their frozen form, they're not round,but dome shaped. Usually 20 in a package and are precooked, so they may look brownish if the packaging is transparent. Check for ‚½‚±Ä‚« on it. When I'm back home, I'll post the brand of the one I bought.


Found 2 recipes. 1 in English the other in Japanese with drawing. It's from otafuku, so it must be good. :D

Otafuku and lunch in a box

I enjoy that lunch in a box site. :good:

I shared some goat cheese & ricotta wrapped in pancetta atop a bed of sauteed spinach (appetizer) and ate some osso buco (braised veal shank) in a hearty vegetable sauce for lunch.

where do you work, and are they hiring? :puppydog:

ditto, we don't even have decent coffee.

That really sounds delicious. Never hated an Italian recipe anyway.
