Mangiare in Giappone: non solo sushi

Who comes first in Japan has not prepared the way down what awaits him, unless you have read avalanche of books, articles and even comics that speak Japanese everyday life, not only the most superficial things. For example I know of use (among other things, thank goodness there is, otherwise you know you play order without speaking the language) to make a fake copy of the dishes out restaurants plastic (or wax) . In special display cases, you can see the specialty of the house perfectly reproduced in 3D. But who does not know it is a bit 'surprised at first. How
in front of the machine order food that can be found at some restaurant. You select the right key, si introducono gli spiccioli e poi si entra, una cameriera porterà i piatti pronti al tavolo.

Invece la sopresa per me è stata quella di scoprire quanto variegata e buona sia la cucina giapponese . Non esiste solo il sushi e sashimi (per fortuna). Oltre a un ottimo tofu (niente a che vedere con quello che si mangia da noi) ho scoperto che esistono ottimi spiedini di carne , che siano yakitori (prevalentemente di pollo ma anche altri piccoli uccelli) o tsukune (di polpette). Ricordo ancora gli ottimi tsukune mangiati a Nikko.
Non male anche le zuppe e i fritti (tempura).

But the real drug for me were the onigiri. those famous triangles of rice with seaweed, that were seen in Japanese cartoons. They are everywhere, in supermarkets, vending. or contain a piece of vegetable, or pickled, or umeboshi or a little 'tuna . The funny thing in that case is find out as the filling was written in Japanese! not even a little drawing. On the other hand there was the little drawing of how to correctly open the envelope (the Japanese would put the plastic at all). Despite this, often I ended up eating the plastic or remove the seaweed!
They're great as snacks throughout the day, other than diet. You are filling and not fattening. Along with the bottles you 'green is my great regret of the trip to Japan.

Alla ricerca degli Okonomiyaki

who grew up among the manga like I know what I'm talking about. You know Kiss me Licia and M'arrabbio ? and their restaurant? Licia clumsy attempts with one where he tried to cook something to the plate. And all of us as children were the ones to ask what kind of pancakes cooked in front of customers, of which he was so greedy cat Julie (the one with the Italian name also in the original).
Or move to something newer, who did not laugh with that crazy Ukyo carton animato di Rumiko Takahashi "Ranma 1/2" ? Che andava in giro con un'enorme paletta per preparare gli okonomiyaki per il suo amato Ranma.
In Italia, nei vari ristoranti giapponesi in cui sono andata, non sono mai riuscita a trovare questa specialità giapponese.
Ma cos'è esattamente un OKONOMIYAKI? Qualcuno la chiama "pizza giapponese". Ma in realtà è una specie di frittata, o meglio è un insieme di ingredienti a scelta (uova, soia, maiale, verdura o altro) cotto alla griglia.
Uno degli obiettivi di questo viaggio in Giappone era assaggiare appunto gli okonomiyaki!
A Tokyo non siamo riusciti a trovarli, ma dopo aver letto sulla guida che are a specialty of Hiroshima (as well as Osaka ) we said: it is the perfect opportunity.
So after visiting the museum of the Hiroshima bomb , we paid a European model of tram and we went in the "center".
We went in a bad place absurd when we have looked perplexed (oh my God two gaijin) but perfect for us: a big man M'arrabbio as gruff and a couple of helpful employees, working in a tiny little room made from the counter and few stools. On hot
counter, in front of customers, the chef prepares okonomiyaki.
Luckily they had a sort of menu English (simplified loooong). And we were able to sample the bomb, composed of eggs, cabbage, meat, soy and other things that I can not . But 'the taste was good. And we have also given two paddles cut from the sun. We remain the

(or?) Okonomiyaki only 2 more times.
The first in a matsuri out Kyoto (the magnificent temple of Inari ) stand in a very picturesque fishing for small fish and between children with colorful lanterns. The second
Kamakura, a town near Tokyo, famous for its huge Buddha that has survived several earthquakes and tsunamis. A restaurant composed of women only very cheerful and kind, where we were served at the table, also consists hot plate (just like Kiss me Licia).
I must say that the ' okonomiyaki has a strong flavor, is in a bit heavier and a bit at the end' putty. But it is worth tasting! And it is quite cheap.
