Taste Yoshoku and You'll Get Addicted After Just One Bite!

Hamburg

Their name is believed to come from the German town these grilled beef patties are said to be originally from. When yoshoku started spreading in Japan, they based the recipe on the French version of the time, wherein ground beef was kneaded with onion, egg, salt, pepper and nutmeg and then grilled, so this can be considered the prototype of today's Japanese hamburg.

Tonkatsu

"Ton" means pork in Japanese, while "katsu" stands for the well-known cutlet, which in turn is derived from the French word "cotolette," used to describe bone-in ribs of veal, lamb, pork, and the like. In the beginning, a pork cutlet was more like a pork sauté, but it was too fatty for the Japanese taste. That's why Japanese chefs took inspiration from tempura and created tonkatsu as we know it today.
Although the meat is cut quite thick, the inside stays tender and matches great with the sweet and salty sauce it comes dressed with. Plus, it's paired with shredded raw cabbage to give your taste buds a break from its oiliness. It's usually served with rice and miso soup.
