==Takoyaki pan==
A {{nihongo|takoyaki pan|たこ焼き器|takoyaki-ki}} or&mdash;much more rarely&mdash;takoyaki {{Lang|ja-Latn|nabe}} is typically a [[griddle]] made of [[cast iron]] with [[wikt:hemisphere|hemispherical]] [[Mold (cooking implement)|mold]]s, similar to a traditional [[Yorkshire pudding]] tray.<ref name="enc"/> The heavy iron evenly heats the takoyaki, which are turned with a pick during the heating process to pull the uncooked batter to the base of the rounded cavity. Commercial gas-fueled takoyaki cookers are used at [[Japanese festivals]] or by street vendors. For home use, electric versions resemble a hotplate; stovetop versions are also available, and many incorporate a non-stick coating to facilitate turning.{{Citation needed|date=February 2025}}
