How to make Okonomiyaki flour from scratch

What should I do if I can’t find pre-made Okonomiyaki flour?

No problem! You can easily whip it up from scratch using basic pantry staples. Plus, this way, you can ensure it’s completely vegetarian. For six years, my daughter followed a vegetarian diet, so I regularly made Okonomiyaki flour from scratch to suit her needs. The homemade version is just as delicious, packed with umami, and has the added bonus of being budget-friendly!
