Zunda Taiyaki ずんだたい焼き

Zunda Taiyaki ずんだたい焼き
I tried making taiyaki for the first time today. I used my new taiyaki pan (they can be found on Amazon) and a recipe from The Japan Centre. This time they are filled with zunda.

In Sendai I often used to go to Usugawa Taiyaki Taikichi taiyaki shop. I miss buying taiyaki filled with zunda mochi or gyutan (beef tongue) curry, two of Sendai's specialities. Taiyaki is a pancake like snack shaped like a fish. Often it is filled with red beans or custard, but it can be filled with anything. Zunda mochi is made from sweet edamame bean paste and mochi rice cakes.
