Top Japanese Food You Must Try

International visitors who visit Japan often identify the cuisine as one of the country's top three attractions. As the number of Japanese restaurants throughout the globe grows dramatically, cuisine is becoming more popular as a healthy option. A list of classic Japanese dishes that you may simply prepare at home is as follows:

Onigiri

Basically, onigiri is a rice ball encased in seaweed. Every supermarket and every convenience store carries it! The most well-known Japanese recipes are simple to prepare and often include salt and other ingredients or fillings, such as grilled salmon, pickled plums, or spicy cod roe, in the rice balls. You can get this at the best Japanese restaurant Brooklyn.

Miso 

As the name suggests, this hearty broth is based on the Japanese staple of miso paste and dashi (broth). Other ingredients, such as vegetables or seaweed or even tofu, may be added to the miso broth. In Japanese cuisine, miso soup is often eaten with white rice and grilled fish. People who have never had brown soup may be apprehensive at first, but the mild flavor may be a hit with anybody, regardless of their origin, country or age! You can also try Ichiran ramen Brooklyn.

Nikujaga

Nikujaga is a traditional Japanese dish that has been eaten for generations. In English, it's possible to say "braised beef with potatoes." Pork, potatoes, carrots, onions, and konnyaku noodles are some of the most common components in Nikujaga. Sweetened soy sauce is used to cook them until all the components are tender. In just one dish, you may sample a wide range of flavors and textures. You can get this at the Japanese restaurant Midtown.

Curry rice

Curry Rice literally means "a platter of curry and rice." Late in the 19th century, curry was first brought to Japan from India, and the recipe has evolved through the years. There are a variety of components used in the curry sauce, including meat, potatoes, carrots, onions, and garlic. Curry powder and roux are readily available at most supermarkets. You can also try best ramen Midtown.

Omurice

Rice and omelet are combined in the name "omurice," which was invented in Japan. Despite the dish's appearance, it was created by a Japanese cook in the 19th century! Chicken and ketchup are added to the rice before it is put into an egg-based omelet.

How to create Cod Roe and benefits to eat

What Is Cod Roe?

Cod roe refers to the ovary (roe) of cod. Generally it’s not the roe of Pacific cod, but Alaska pollock, and made by salting the ovaries. The main production areas in Japan are Hokkaido.

What Is Spicy Cod Roe ?

Cod roe marinated in a liquid containing salt, red peppers, and other seasonings. The similar product in Korea normally contains garlic in the liquid, but Japanese one doesn’t.

In Japan, spicy cod roe has been recognized as a specialty of Kyushu region, especially Fukuoka prefecture.

By the way, although spicy cod roe are produced mostly at processing plants in Fukuoka, Japan, the fish are often purchased from Alaska or Russia.

What Is Mentaiko in Japan?

In some parts of Western Japan, people call cod roe “明太子 Mentaiko“, and spicy cod roe “辛子明太子 Karashi Mentaiko“.

That’s because 明太 mentai was the term for a “Alaska pollock” in old Japan. And 子 ko is the term for “child” in Japanese. Karashi is the term for Japanese mustard by the way.

However, since spicy cod roe as a specialty of Fukuoka prefecture has become really popular nationally, “明太子 Mentaiko” is recognized as spicy cod roe in Japan lately.

What Does Cod Roe Taste Like?

It has distinctive smell of fish, but it’s not so strong because cod roe has been usually marinated in sauce contains salt, red peppers, or other seasonings. The unique taste of it is salty, so it matches so well with rice, pasta, or ingredients for various kinds of appetizer. Also, the texture of cod roe is the granular coarseness, and you can feel kind of like crispy feeling from it.

How Is Cod Roe Used?

Normally both of cod roe and spicy cod roe can be used in the same way. Those are typical dishes Japanese people usually make with cod roe or spicy cod roe.

Cod Roe Rice Ball (Onigiri)

Yes, you can eat cod roe raw. It’s totally fine as long as your cod roe (spicy cod roe) is fresh. Eating both cod roe and spicy cod roe raw are very common in Japan. On the other hand, some people prefer to bake the surface of them slightly and eat. Personally speaking, I like to eat them raw because I can feel taste, flavor, and texture better in that way.
