/food/ - Japanese food that is overwhelmingly awesome

Name: Anonymous 2005-02-02 9:05

Unfortunately, Japanese food in the US has been stereotyped as "Oh, you mean a Teriyaki Bowl." Yet there is so much more, most of which isn't seen unless you go to a Japanese supermarket.

Okonomiyaki- Sort of a lunch or dinner pancake. Varieties include beef, shrimp, vegetables, etc. Sadly, I've never seen a US restaurant serve this.
Sukiyaki- Almost like flat plate fondue. Cooked beef, vegetables, mushrooms, clear sukiyaki noodles. You can eat the stuff over rice or dip in raw egg with soy sauce- just make sure you have non-salmonella kind.
Mochi- A chewy rice cake wrapped in seaweed and dipped in soysauce.

My local grocery store sells everything you need to make sushi. Kits, mats, 300 different "sushi making tools", most everything else. Except, now get this: The green outer wrap.

That's like selling everything you need to make any kind of cake on earth, except flour.

Taiyaki becomes a delicious delicacy when you cut a dog's throat so as to "bleed out" upon the dish. Enjoy!
