Jingisukan - Grilled Lamb Japanese Style
Inhaltsverzeichnis
Jingisukan recipe recipeIn the late 19th century, the Japanese government promoted sheep farming as a source of wool. People were encouraged to eat mutton to become stronger. Occasionally, authorities organized events in Tokyo and Hokkaido where the meat could be tasted. By the 1930s, the dish began to gain familiarity and establish itself among the Japanese people. Jingisukan is still popular today, especially in Hokkaido, where sheep farming is still prevalent.
Special cast-iron pans are available in Japan for the Genghis Khan dish. The pans have a raised center where the meat is grilled and a rim that resembles the shape of a hat, allowing vegetables to cook in the meat juices. Many households in Hokkaido own such a special pan, giving the dish Jingisukan a unique place in Japanese cuisine.
