The History of Dorayaki
Dorayaki is a Japanese sweet pancake sandwich made with two slightly sweet pancakes filled with anko (a sweet red bean paste). It is a popular snack and dessert in Japan and is often associated with the anime character Doraemon. The history of dorayaki can be traced back to the Edo period (1603-1868). The earliest known mention of dorayaki was in a cookbook published in 1804. The name dorayaki is thought to come from the Japanese word "dora", which means "gong". This is because the two pancakes are said to resemble a gong when they are cooked together.
Dorayaki is typically made with a batter of eggs, flour, sugar, and water. The batter is then cooked in a hot pan until it is golden brown on both sides. The anko is then spread on one pancake and the other pancake is placed on top. The dorayaki is then served warm.
