The actual report isn't for a few more weeks, so that's plenty of time for delivery. That, and there's some stuff I can substitute. For instance, I hear that Okonomiyaki sauce is very similar to Worcestershire Sauce, except it's a bit sweeter and thicker. [Though I'm still gonna try to get the sauce] The only huge problem is that my world history class is 4th period, and you're supposed to serve them right after cooking... I also know of a great market that specializes in foreign foods, so I might be able to find some stuff there Meet ケイクヨ, the Cactus King! |

I am thinking maki-zushi might be a better idea. You can make it in advance, and you probably know what it is supposed to taste like. |

I really like both Worchestshire and Okonomiyaki sauce, but pleazzzzzzzzzze don't try to substitute one for the other. The only resemblance they have is the dark brown color.
As for making okonomyaki for the class, that seems like nearly certain doom. While the recipe seems simple (and it is) being able to cook something that is a cross between crepe and stuffed pancake takes practice to get right consistently. For every time you cook it just right, there is likely to be one that is overcooked and tough, or undercooked and mushy. Go for something you have made many times before, or at least something you can make ahead of time and bring in just the servings that turned out well. And having tried to eat cold and reheated okonomiyaki and its korean cousin - don't subject you fellow students to it.(bleh!) Its doesn't hold up as well as cold pizza. I remember these extra credit projects, too. I still can't face a date stuffed with royal icing from when we studied Saudi Arabia. Only an open mind and open heart can be filled with life. ********************* Find your voice; silence will not protect you.
