Separately, empty the dashi into a small Tonkatsu sauce saucepan and bring to the boil over a high heat. 5. Empty the daikon onto a small plate and the coleslaw into another. 6. Season the asparagus with grapeseed oil , salt and sancho powder Place the seasoned asparagus and tonkatsu onto a baking tray and grill for 5 minutes, turning halfway through. 7. In the meantime, set a full kettle on to boil. Drain the udon from the cold water and divide between two serving bowls. Pour over the boiling water from the kettle, leave them to warm for one minute, then drain each bowl individually. 8. Pour the piping hot dashi over the noodles. Crack in the onsen tamago and add the cooked asparagus to each bowl. 9.

An egg slipped into warm water to create a silky, custardy egg that can be enjoyed on its own, perhaps with soy-dashi broth poured on top, or as part of another dish such as ramen. Stir in the cheddar cheese, salt and pepper. You could say the egg is ready for anything, and for its close-up. Fried mussels and oysters, grilled lobster, crayfish, and snapper abound, and seasoned local cooks rely on simple preparations to help carry the incredible zest of briny freshness onto your palate.

  • CLASSIC TONKATSU Ladies and Gentlemen, May We Have Your Attention, Please: for Your Gustatory Pleasure and Delight, We Now Present the Star of This Chapter, Tonkatsu
    CLASSIC TONKATSU Ladies and gentlemen, may we have your attention, please: for your gustatory pleasure and delight, we now present the star of this chapter, tonkatsu. Here it is, the classic method, which is so incredibly sat- isfying, and also so easy to whip up. In this recipe, Tadashi shares a family secret—coat the pork with flour and egg twice, which makes the tonkatsu even crunchier. (Old-school tonkatsu joints in Japan, by the way, often use lard instead of oil for frying, which makes the tonkatsu even crunchier, but we’re SERVES 4 sticking to oil and saving on the heart bypass sur- 3⁄4 pound cabbage, cored gery bills, thank you very much.) Be sure to use a 4 fillets boneless pork shoulder or pork loin deep-fry (or “candy”) thermometer to gauge temper- (about 1 pound), about 3⁄4 inch thick ature while you deep-fry; the easiest way to screw Salt and ground black pepper up this dish is to fry the pork too hot or too cold. In 2 eggs Japan, they say you deep-fry the tonkatsu until it’s 1⁄2 cup flour the color of kitsune, that is, the golden brown hue of a fox. Serve the pork this way: sliced into strips, rest- 2 cups panko crumbs ing against a mound of shredded cabbage, slathered Vegetable oil for deep-frying in tonkatsu sauce, and with a dab of sinus-clearing 4 teaspoons Japanese karashi mustard (see karashi mustard on the side. A bowl of steaming page 234) white rice on the side is also mandatory.
