Yakitori


Yakitori


One of my faorite sidedish for beer, Yakitori!

Simply, break down chicken into each piece and grill on charchol fire.

This one is unpopular part of chicken(I don'T exactly know which part is it) so very cheap at market :)

Which part of chicken is expensive in your country? In Japan, Chicken thigh(I still unablte to pronounce this word) are popular and expensive, breast is almost a half plice of thigh.

I agree, thigh is juicy and delicious for any kind of cooking, brest are only used for deepfried.

For Yakitori, breast are not delisious at all. Thigh are most popular.

Butyou know, Chicken skin and Sunagimo(I don't know how to say in English) are also popular.

My favorite ingredients for Yakitori is chicken skin. Crispy!

Yummy!
I love yakitori too !
BTW, Sunagimo is Gizzard in English.
It sounds stupid but I thought it is "sand-liver" which is direct translation of Sunagimo. But I googled it and found following page.

Gizzard... I don't know if I have a chance to use the word again.
