YOGYAKARTA - You know that yakitori is not just food, but also a reflection of Japanese culture. Therefore, there is a way to eat yakitori according to the traditions of the State of Sakura.

For those of you who are the first to taste yakitori, you may feel a little confused with the different types and methods of presentation. Don't worry, this article will discuss complete guidelines for enjoying yakitori.

Reporting from the Savor Japan page, here are some tips for eating yakitori at Japanese restaurants:

All types of ykitori may feel a bit confusing at first, especially in restaurants with twenty-type menus One thing to keep in mind is that many yakitori restaurants have chairs at bar tables where you can communicate directly with the chef.

The chefs at the restaurant are specialists not only in yakitori art, but often in their various types of specialized chickens. So, if you're a beginner, take advantage of a chair at the bar table and ask for a chef's recommendation ("osusume" in Japanese).

But if you know the name of the menu you want, it will be easier. Just tell the chef the name, the spices you want (shose or tie), and how many of each one you want.

To calculate the satay stab, use the word "ippon" (one stab), "nihon" (two stabs), or "sanbon" (three stabs).

Then at more elite restaurants, you may have the option for an automase course. This is a great choice for beginners and yakitori fans, as you can be sure that you get the best of the best according to the chef's opinion.

Omakase courses will typically include a number of satay stabs and side dishes, but the details will be left to the chef's assessment based on the types of chickens they use, the available ingredients, and your tastes.

In Japan, yakitori is usually ordered as a snack with beer. If you plan to make yakitori the main dish, you might want to order some side dishes.

Anda akan menemukan berbagai masa seperti edamame, sashimi, gyoza (pangsit), atau karaage (ayam goreng). Di restoran yakitori khusus, menu sidennya mungkin lebih terbatas, tetapi semua pilihannya akan dirancang untuk melengkapi makan utama.

As a complement, you can choose salads,ucaminous vegetables, or rice dishes such as ochazuke (nation with tea-based soup).

Many beginners assume that it is more polite to remove meat from a satay and eat each piece with a sickle. Although some people in Japan also prefer this method, it is generally considered a bit fussy, such as eating pizza with knives and forks.

Namun, jika lebih nyaman bagi Anda, tidak masalah menggunakan kurang untuk menggis cutang yang sulit dijangkali ke eks penyakit satay agar lebih mudah dijangkasi.

Then because you eat directly from a satay stab, don't leave it on a plate. This habit is considered unhygienic and makes collecting plates difficult for staff. On the other hand, use a special container such as a cup to remove used satay stabs.
