NIKUJAGA (JAPANESE BEEF STEW)



Nikujaga (Japanese Beef Stew) image

Literally the word nikujaga means meat and potatoes and is Japanese-style home cooking at it's finest. The creation of Nikujaga is attributed to Admiral Togo Heihachiro, the illustrious hero of the Russo-Japanese War. As a young man, Togo spent several years studying naval science in Great Britain. While commander of an Imperial Navy base, he is said to have ordered the base's chefs to make a version of the beef stews served in the British Royal Navy. Togo was stationed at the Kure naval base from May 1890 to December 1891 and at the Maizuru naval base in 1901 to 1903 and no one knows for sure which one is the true base for the recipe. Every Japanese mother has their own version of Nikujaga and they are all good. Serve with a side of white rice and Miso soup. Some people even serve it over the rice.
