I have two recipes for Okonomi Sauce:

* a traditional, yowza-this-will-take-all-day sort of recipe: authentic okonomi sauce recipe

* "this is what we usually do" kind of shortcut recipe: modern shortcut okonomi sauce recipe

Both are from a good Japanese friend of mine who happens to also be a chef here in the Bay Area.

Yeah, there's no need to import Okonomi-yaki sauce from Japan. Although if you really want to get the authentic stuff, you can order it through Amazon, actually.

And yes I have a whole website devoted to okonomiyaki. What can I say, it's a fun food.
