What is your favorite Japanese food?

[gtlm2000]

OK, Please tell what your favorite Japanese food is.
Okinawan food is also OK

My favorite is Katu-don and Okinawa soba

My food tastes are seasonal. It is kinda chilly now, so I like warmer foods.

My fav Japanese food for this time of year is Nikuman.
Nikuman (肉まん) is a Japanese food made from flour dough, and filled with cooked ground pork or other ingredients and steamed. Types include: Nikuman (filled with beef and vegetables), Butaman (filled with pork and vegetables), Anman (filled with azuki beans), Pizzaman (filled with a pizza sauce filling with cheese sausage and peparoni), Kaniman (filled with crab and vegetables) and Curryman (curry filled)

My fav Okinawan food for this time of year is Soki Soba.
Soki, or spare ribs, are cooked in soy sauce, sugar and awamori (Okinawan liquor). Soki Soba is served in a tasty soup with Okinawan Noodles and topped with big chunks of soki.

Did I mention yakiniku?:D

[kombu_kid]

Yup......I'm with P and GT as far as Yaki Niku and Chicken Katsu......I'm a simple guy. Man, this tonkatsu sauce is like crack cocaine......I wanna eat chicken katsu with this sauce until I explode!

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b276/MyCammer/tonkatsu.jpg

Also, those real thin white cold noodles are good and sukiyaki too......I know, I know, ya'll said "favorite", as in 1 food but it's hard.....and I'm hungry.

[Asshat]

Yaki nikku is pretty much "Asian food" or "Texas food" dudes. I like it too, but dang, it's still BBQ'd beef. Add some ginger to the Japanese version of the sauce and you have the South East Asian version. Add some chili flakes, and you have the US SW version. Add peanut sauce and you have the Tamil version.

I'm with GT on the favorites though. Katsu don and Okinawa soba for me too. I also like gyoza, but that is Chinese.

I don't appreciate Japanese food though. It pales in comparison to Okinawan food, and is bland in taste.

Yeah I know but I still love it:D

I'm not a big fan of don but I'll have some from time to time. I go on katsu binges and get it a few times a week and then I'll get sick of it for a while. Some of the best katsu I had was at Wafutai. They put cheese in the chicken katsu:w00t:

I'm also craving some soba right now. I had some soki soba from a place in shuri that had some really tasty noodles. I like sanmainiku a little more then soki only because most soba places I've been to had too much soft bone on the meat.

Damn......I miss soba a lot:(

[socalheart]

I really like ebi tenpura, but allergies prevent me from eating it. Instead, I like karubi yakiniku and rice, tonkatsu, beef yakisoba, cheese croquette and yakitori. I'm pretty dull in my food choices. heh. :o

[uchinahafu]

First and foremost I love Soki Soba (especially when my grandma makes the soki), miso soup w/rice (loved it since I was a little girl), tsukemono, tempura,...the list goes on. I'm hungry now!!

chikuwa, and senbei (not really a food but more like a snack...rice crackers)

Damn, get ready for 300 more groans.

[dk]

I can't pick one. Yakiniku really isn't Japanese, correct. Korean? I like Yakiniku and Shabu Shabu though. Japanese, hmm... Tonkatsu, shimarakyo (badass), yakitori, dang, just about anything found in a good izakaya that isn't seafood or intestines. I really love shimarakyo, though. When those are in season, my breath is horrible, and I like it.

[dk]

i do like yakitori...
What's not to like about yakitori? I'm pretty sure everyone likes yakitori.

[dk]

in colorado springs there was this Japanese Place called the Yakitori House...


MAN O MAN.... that shit was GOOD.. huge skewers with a ton of meat and the best sauce....


i was a little upset when i got here and saw the size of the yakitori though..
You ever seen a Japanese chicken? They're like this tall.

Sapporo Raman, IMO Sapporo has the best food/beer Japan has to offer hands down! If it wasn’t so damn cold up there, I would consider retiring in that area. Okinawa Soba is very good, but I’m not real big on any other foods here on Island.

[dk]

I don't really care all that much for miso soup, but man, you can get some good miso soup outdoors at some places in mainland Japan. It's awesome when it's freezing cold. That hot, sweet, kinda chunky, not very strong sake sold in the winter is good too. Not really food though...

Ate my first ostrich meat here, so I guess I can say that I like ostrich too.

[dk]

:rolleyes::rolleyes:Japanese Chicken??

do they speak Japanese???:rolleyes:
They don't speak they bwack bwack bwack BWA~CK.

[dk]

do they know Karate??
Don't be silly. All chicken know karate.

[dk]

I had Ostrich in Germany at this Mongolian BBQ called the Big Hot Bowl....

OMG.... ******* amazing.. so lean and tender.. that restauraunt was by far the best Mongolian BBQ I have ever had!!!
Yeah, ostrich is really, really, really, really, really good. I could eat that every day. I think they (Dacholand, or Ostrich Land) said that it's pretty healthy too, but I may be wrong.

[dk]

it is one of the healthiest red meats out there...

:barf: Yes it smells like bad feet.

:barf: Yes it smells like bad feet.

You know the only possible way to know that natto might have the pungent aroma of unwashed feet is to have actually eaten it.:thumbup:

I will admit that I used to think the same thing as well, and still do in fact, but damn natto sure tastes great and help keep away sickness and disease.:cool:

Do you happen to like cheese?

natto smell can be overcome, but the texture is like snot with lumps in it.

On those islands to the West, a typical breakfast is a mostly cooked egg, yagi soup, (goat) with shiro miso, a bowl of white rice and a plastic container of natto.

It is even worse with a kume-sen hangover.

[gtlm2000]

Sometime, I put Natto on rice :) It's very nice.

[Muku]

but the texture is like snot with lumps in it.

lol! Never had the pleasure of trying this one, but thanks for telling everyone here what it's like, I guess we can just imagine the rest.:-|:D

lol! Never had the pleasure of trying this one, but thanks for telling everyone here what it's like, I guess we can just imagine the rest.:-|:D

I could have said "jizz with chunks" but then someone would wonder how I knew that. lol...

Natto is not on my list of favorites and I can eat pretty much anything. The only thing worse than natto is durian. My GAWD that is some aweful stuff.

It smells and tastes like used 90 weight oil out of a 1964 Plymouth.:barf:

[Sex Wax]

that looks absolutely disgusting!!!!!

I gotta go with you on that assesment. It does look and smell nasty. But the Kim Chi natto is pretty good. I dont mind the taste of natto, but when I eat it, the small strings that are produced by picking some up get stuck in my beard. Kinda like when I eat a fresh, out of the oven pizza, The strings of melted cheese are all over my beard and mustache. Or when I chug a big mug of Frosty Malt Chilly, the beer drips down my beard.

Wait....I think I'm a barbarian. All I need is a horned helmet and a battle axe.

Or maybe I should just use one of those things called "napkins.

[dk]

I've got your battle axe.

Yes but the cheese I eat doesn't stink nor does it taste like crap. I tried natto once because my wife kept begging me to, I'll never eat it again.

Oh so you saw that special too? The one saying that natto is good for you? I remember seeing it about a year ago on tv. I also remember everyone running out to buy that crap after that special:barf:

[tim duncan]

love natto sushi.....better then the other kinds of sushi imho...

Sashimi teishoku w/ miso shiru, tempura, chawanmushi, and (cant recall the name but) the cold citrusy, vinegary, seaweed salad, this seaweed is like tiny noodles.

Next would have to be Chirashizushi.

Then any type of seafood topped with Uni sauce.

[P_chan]

Yeah what's the name of that seaweed with the tiny bubbles that pop in your mouth? That stuff is surprisingly good!

[Kiyashi40]

for sure man these two things are the bomb!:thumbup1:<3

[uchinahafu]

(cant recall the name but) the cold citrusy, vinegary, seaweed salad, this seaweed is like tiny noodles.

If it is just noodle like with no little bubbles than it's mozuku.

If it has the bubbles it's umi budou.

[Jazz]

Yeah that's it - Mozuku.

[DougP]

yuk! Mozuku, that stuff is like cold sputum soaked noodles in a cup.:barf:

Well, I had the same sort of thing happen with oatmeal when I was a kid. I remember my parents dumping a bunch of oatmeal into a bowl to add hot water to and there was a bunch of bugs in it... So... just bad luck. It's worth trying. Just pay attention to what you're eating. I really think this was just a fluke. I've never heard about it happening to anyone else.

Well, the only time I've had umi budou is at a restaurant with my sushi or chirashizushi and if I found bugs there I'd freak out and raise hell. That would suck though cause it's my favorite sushi bar that always serves it.

I looooooooooooooooove shabu shabu. But that's not really Japanese, is it?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steamboat_(food)

[gtlm2000]

Is it? I thought shabushabu is Japanese food.

[dk]

Maybe it's the Japanese variation. I just remembered that I had something very close to it in Malaysia once (or Singapore...), and that it was called Steamboat, which apparently is a style of cooking.

I could eat Shabu Shabu (or steamboat) every day of the week, even in the summer...

[dk]

Dangit... Now I want Shabu Shabu...

[Mehi River]

shabu shabu is best using pork and then dipping in green tea salt!

[Jazz]

I believe every asian country has a variation of it.

[P_chan]

I think Ryu is right. I even saw a few shabushabu restaurants when I was in Thailand. Of course, the best shabushabu is the one you cook yourself:thumbup:
