Nisshin Seifun Welna's Yamaimo Okonomiyaki Flour is a premium mix for making Japanese savoury pancakes at home, distinguished by the generous inclusion of yamaimo (Japanese mountain yam) powder in the base. Yamaimo is the ingredient that gives a well-made okonomiyaki its characteristic airy, almost soufflé-like interior — adding a natural binding quality and a lightness to the batter that plain flour cannot replicate on its own. The mix also contains a carefully built dashi blend of katsuobushi bonito, kombu kelp, prawn, and scallop extracts, which provides a deeply savoury, rounded base note before any additional ingredients are added. The result is a batter that produces okonomiyaki with a noticeably lighter, fluffier texture than standard mixes, with the dashi doing quiet work in the background. Add your choice of fillings — cabbage, pork belly, prawns, mochi, or cheese — pour onto a hot griddle, and cook until golden and crisp on the outside. At 400g it makes multiple rounds, enough for several occasions.
