Description:

is a popular Japanese dish made from grilled eel (unagi), typically served with a sweet, savory sauce called tare. It is often prepared by broiling the eel fillet, which has been butterflied and grilled over a flame. The resulting dish is both tender and flavorful, with a rich umami taste. The tare sauce is a key component of Unagi Kabayaki and is made from soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and sometimes sake, creating a glossy, caramelized coating on the eel.

Nutritional Value:

  • Vitamin A: ~10–20% of the daily recommended intake
    Eel is a good source of vitamin A, which is important for vision, immune function, and skin health.
  • Vitamin B12: ~200% of the daily recommended intake
    Eel is an excellent source of vitamin B12, which plays a key role in nerve function and red blood cell production.
  • Iron: ~5–10% of the daily recommended intake
    Eel provides a modest amount of iron, which is important for oxygen transport in the blood.
  • Calcium: ~3–5% of the daily recommended intake
    Eel contains a small amount of calcium, which is vital for bone health.

Serving Suggestions:

  • is often placed over a bowl of steamed rice (making it Unadon), or served in a lacquered box with rice (Unaju). You can drizzle more of the tare sauce on top for extra flavor.
  • The eel should have a nice balance of flavors: sweet from the sugar in the tare, savory from the soy sauce, and rich from the eel’s natural oils.
