Making Dorayaki is more than just cooking; it's a labor of love. Each pancake is carefully crafted, ensuring they're perfectly cooked and golden brown.

Step-by-step

• Pertama adalah menyiapkan tepung terigu. Sebaiknya, Anda mengayaknya terlebih dahulu. Hal ini penting agar tepung terigu yang Anda gunakan benar-benar lembut dan bersih.
• Kemudian, campurlah tepung terigu tersebut dengan baking soda hingga rata.
• Masukkan semua bahan untuk membuat kulit ke dalam campuran terigu dan baking soda. Kemudian aduk hingga rata sambil menuangkan air. Sebaiknya Anda memanfaatkan alat pengocok.
• Jika adonan sudah pas, diamkan adonan selama 15 menit di dalam kulkas dengan ditutup menggunakan plastik.
• Jika sudah didiamkan selama 15 menit, kemudian siapkan alat penggorengan. Pilihlah alat penggorengan yang anti lengket atau Teflon. Dengan demikian proses penggorengan akan berjalan dengan sempurna.
• Setelah itu, Anda harus mengolesi permukaan teflon dengan sedikit minyak goreng dan tunggu sebentar hingga minyak panas.
• Jika minyak sudah panas, tuanglah adonan bakal kulit ke Teflon tersebut. Aturlah tekanan api sekecil mungkin kemudian tutup Teflon dengan penutupnya. Tunggu hingga kulit kue Dorayaki matang.
• Jika proses pembuatan kulit sudah selesai, sekarang saatnya bagi Anda untuk membuat isi kue Dorayaki. Caranya, Anda harus mencuci dan merendam kacang merah selama kurang lebih satu jam.
• Kemudian, kacang merah tersebut direbus dan ditambahkan gula pasir dan garam. Tunggu beberapa saat hingga kacang merah tersebut hancur dan mengental. Jika sudah mengental maka angkat dan dinginkan.
• Langkah terakhir adalah mengoleskan selai kacang merah pada selembar kulit Dorayaki kemudian menutup atasnya dengan selembar kulit lainnya. Kue dorayaki ini akan nampak seperti burger.
