Nikuten
In Takasago, this dish isn't called 'okonomiyaki' but rather 'Nikuten,' and it tastes distinctly different from your ordinary okonomiyaki. Large chunks of potato are placed boldly atop a thinly spread batter. Layers of cabbage, sweet and savory simmered beef tendon, konnyaku, and tenkasu are added before the whole thing is grilled and folded in half. Because the potatoes are cooked in the beef tendon simmering liquid, they hold their shape while becoming fluffy and coated in the delicious umami of the meat. It is said that the name originates from the inclusion of 'suji' (beef tendon) and 'tenkasu'. With its chewy batter, fluffy potatoes, and tender beef tendon, this hearty dish is incredibly satisfying. It is a pride of Takasago, even recognized as one of the Agency for Cultural Affairs' '100 Year Foods'.
