Chicken Shougayaki

A nice and quick fix for lunch today

A nice and quick fix for lunch today

I made Chicken Shougayaki for lunch. I had the opportunity to buy really nice juicy ginger a few days ago. Mostly the ginger that we get here is a bit dry so it does not make great shougayaki. I used chicken because beef is not available for sale in my state. I would not dare to eat unprocessed pork meat in India because of the conditions that pigs are raised here. Shougayaki is one of the few Japanese dishes that is easily recreated here. The only real concern is to use good quality soy sauce.

    Looking for a shougayaki recipe and found this blog. Then I read no “beef for sale”. My first reaction, “no effing way!” Then I read that you’re in India. And it all makes sense now. Lol. No beef in all of India? really? Makes sense but sounds way too odd. None at all?

    There is certainly beef available in India but only in certain states. Every state can decide to ban or allow beef depending on what the demographics are. Personally I think the government should have no part to play on what people are allowed to consume or not.
