【What is a Japanese cuisine that men love?】

Hello, dear followers and readers. I am TOSHI, a Japanese woman. I have been a writer for five years, mainly writing about food.

Now that Japanese food is grabbing international attention, I would like to introduce a dish that would be a great conversation pieces if you knew about it.

Do you know a dish that would make you popular among men? Its called “Nikujaga.”（肉じゃが）

It is a dish made by sauteing potatoes, meat, onions, carrots, etc., and simmering them with sake, a Japnese traditional alcohol, sugar, soy sauce, etc. to make a sweet and salty dish.

It takes some effort to peel the potatoes, but it has a strong flavor, and if you make it well, it is very delicious.

It tastes like sukiyaki, or a Japanese beef bowl. It seems that foreigners like teriyaki. It is not as condensed as teriyaki, but it may have a similar taste to it.

Even among delicious Japanese dishes, there are some that foreigners like and some that they do not, but I think this one will be popular because it consists of friend meat.

【If you can cook Nikujaga well, you will be popular among men】

In Japan, it is said that if you can cook Nikujaga well, you will be popular among men.

It may seem simple, but it is not a very easy dish because you have to peel the potatoes, and it is delicious with relatively inexpensive ingredients, so it is seen as a homemade meal.

On the other hand, it is probably not a dish served at a five star restaurant. I have never eaten it when eating out.

【Some people even think they are cunning】

Some people even think that women who answer “Nikujaga” to a man who asks them “What kind of cooking are you good at?” are quite cunning.

Even so, Japan is still a male-dominated society.

There is a strong belief that women should behave in a way to appease men. That in itself is a problem, and there is room for improvement.

【A recipe of Nikujaga】

Nikujaga is a recipe that many cooking experts often examine. Here is a recipe by Doi Yoshiharu (土井善晴). He is a very famous Japanese cooking specialist.

I actually made it, and it was very delicious. Yes, it was very delicious. If you are not careful, you will end up eating a lot all by yourself in no time. I managed to hold back myself and leave some for my husband.

If you have a Japanese friend or partner, or if you are just interested in Japanese food, ask them about “Nikujaga.” I think it will be a great way to start a good conversation.
