Kumamoto from Kyushu and his party came to this stop "Suganoya". They knew they would come to interview this restaurant before leaving. It is famous for horse meat cuisine, and horse meat cuisine is one of the cultures here in Kumamoto. Wendy knows that I am somewhat picky and picky. I don't eat any food that is too imaginable or has a special taste.But the purpose of traveling is to experience something different from the current life. Under the entanglement in my heart, I decided to challenge horse meat cooking!
Kumamoto Castle, Kyushu Horse Meat Cuisine Culture Origin Classroom
400 years ago, during the Warring States Period in Japan, the lord of Kumamoto Castle, Kato Kiyomasa, sent troops to fight and encountered food shortages. He cooked and consumed the dead army horses. After eating horse meat, he unexpectedly found that the horse meat was extremely delicious, so he began to spread horse meat dishes.The nutritional value of horse meat is very high, coupled with the small number of stocked animals, it has become the top ingredient in high-end cuisine restaurants. For the common people of the time, horse meat cuisine is beyond reach. As they enter the daily food life of ordinary people, The horse meat is evenly distributed in color and oil, and the pieces of meat turn into a cherry blossom color when exposed to the air. It has the reputation of "Sakura Meat". There is also a horse meat hot pot called "Sakura Pot".
Kumamoto Castle Suganoya in Kyushu has a taste of horse meat dishes, the freshest and carefully selected!
There are many types of horse meat dishes in Kumamoto Castle, but there are not many parts that can be eaten, but they can transform more than 40 types of cooking food. I have to admire Japanese cooking methods. Horse meat contains more minerals than beef and pork, plus high protein. Low cholesterol and strong antibacterial properties, it is no problem to eat raw as sashimi dipping sauce.In order to interview this restaurant at that time, a Japanese friend told me that "Suganoya" is second to none. Kumamoto Prefecture has expanded to 5 branches. This time I was brought to the Shangtong branch, but I was surprised that 8% of the customers were seated for lunch. Unimaginable.
The service staff led us to our seats and pulled down the curtains of the box to allow us to concentrate on dining and shooting. A friend asked a few recommended popular dishes, and she cordially explained and recommended them one by one (for example, these dishes in the article are all popular No.01! ), tells us that horse sashimi is scarce and contains cholesterol-lowering fatty acids. For first-time tasters, horse meat itself has no peculiar smell and the meat is fresh and soft, especially for female travelers.
In the past, I could even eat frog and even lamb without eating. Two of my friends in the same group have readily eaten horse meat sashimi with minced ginger, green onion, and soy sauce. In order not to be rude, I also hurriedly tasted it. It was indeed as the service staff had said. Said that there is no taste as expected, only delicious meat. For Anya, who is a horse, this is a big step in life, because when I went abroad for the first time with the group, even the fried crocodile in Bangkok I dare not eat meat, let alone horse meat!The grilled kebabs, steaks and nigiri sushi served on the table, I seriously eat and feel the deliciousness of each item. I must say... If you want to travel to Kumamoto Castle and don’t want to miss this dish, you can order cooked food as much as possible. , And try raw horse meat dishes later!
