  • The Hidden Truth About Eel Procurement in Japan a Survey Of
    Greenpeace Japan Briefing Paper, June 4, 2018 The Hidden Truth About Eel Procurement in Japan A Survey of Processed Eel Product (Kabayaki) Sourcing by Major Retailers I. Background Four species of eel are being used as ingredients for eel products known as kabayaki (grilled eel) consumed in Japan, including the Japanese eel, European eel, American eel, and shortfin eel. Three of these (Japanese, European, and American) are designated as endangered species on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.1 International trade in the European eel, which is listed in Appendix II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), has been regulated since 2009, so any imports or exports require specific permission.2 The European Union (EU) has banned exports of European eel since 2011. 3 Many factors are threatening eels, but besides the deterioration of rivers and other habitats and changes in the marine environment, a major suspected factor is declining populations due to fishing.4 As a part of its activities to protect marine ecosystems, Greenpeace Japan has been working since 2013 to study the procurement policies and awareness of supermarkets and other major Japanese retailers in relation to eel, which is still being widely consumed in Japan even though it is designated an endangered species. As an ingredient for kabayaki, eel is known to be at high risk of involving illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing. This survey was carried out to shed light on the handling of and procurement policies for eel products (kabayaki), the transparency of the supply chain, and areas of concern in eel procurement.

The steamed product produced by one of the methods for processing kabayaki was evaluated, and it was found that the ribs were hardly softened, and the sensation of foreign bodies in the mouth due to bones was clearly felt. However, the sensory evaluation of the retort products showed that there was no bone-related foreign body sensation, and the ribs of some products were so soft that they could not be detected. In oven-cooked products, the ribs were softened when the oven temperature was set to 140°C and 150°C but not at 130°C. Products manufactured in a 150°C oven were found to be overdry on the surface and burnt.

  • What Is the Importance and Role of Food in Modern Japanese Society?
    Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið B.A í Japönsku máli og menningu What is the importance and role of food in modern Japanese society? Why is Japanese food classified as world heritag and what makes Japanese food stand apart from the food culture of other countries? Ritgerð til BA / MA-prófs í Japönsku máli og menningu César Vladimir Rodríguez Cedillo Kt: 040892-5089 Leiðbeinandi: Gunnella Þórgeirsdóttir May 20017 1 Abstract. In Japanese society, a meal goes beyond the food and eating it. It is known that Japanese food was influenced by China and Korea due to the geographical proximity. Traditional food is an important aspect of the culture and it is considered a world heritage. Thus, a traditional meal is not only aiming for the taste, but also aiming to protect the nature and transmit knowledge to future generations. The climate in Japan varies considerably, which allowed each city to develop their own traditional dishes representing the area. This has encouraged culinary tourism, where people travel throughout Japan to experience different flavours. Culinary tourism benefited Japanese culture and economy by supporting local villages and smaller communities. A convenient way to experience dishes from different regions, is by buying ekiben (lunch boxes sold at the train stations) while riding the train from one city to another. Seasonal food is important for society, because the diet is based on each season of the year. To stay healthy throughout the year, Japanese children learn important values and skills such as cooperation, teamwork and responsibility in their school lunches during elementary school. Bento boxes (lunch boxes) influenced, to some extent, the personality of Japanese children either by helping them to socialize easier with their classmates or excluded them out of a group.

  • From Cod to Unagi Kabayaki FARMED • S UNAGI KABAYKAI E a V V E A
    1 FINE FILLETS 2 from cod to unagi kabayaki FARMED • S UNAGI KABAYKAI E A V V E A S • S S • • % A A E E V JUST REHEAT V V V E E A 10A • • S S 1 sachet 255g £19.90 £16.90 Dear Fish lover, 3 sachets 765g £54.90 £48.60 The favourites remain popular - everyone still loves cod. I think we probably sell this in more formats than any other fish. Even before we get onto cod liver and cod roe. Did you see we added cod maws? But newcomers arrive all the time. And sometimes they reveal pent-up demand. Unagi kabayaki has flown out of the door since we listed it two months ago. We had to make a special 80 mile round trip to pick some more up when the launch stock was exhausted. What is it? ask all the cod-lovers. The unagi bit is simple - that's just the Japanese for eel, and as I have told you many times over the years, eel is a truly Marinated fresh wonderful fish. Kabayaki is more complicated. I haven't figured out if it's the eel fillet, or the skewers on which the fillet is water eel fillet mounted, or the teryaki-like sauce in which the eel is marinaded before cooking. But whichever it is, I can assure you that unagi kabayaki is very rich and an intensely luxurious experience. At the risk MACKEREL WILD of triggering another 80 mile dash, I urge you to try this item this month, using this very valuable discount.
