HISTORY OF TEPPANYAKI
|
The Mongolians were pastoral nomads from northeast Asia. They developed from this lifestyle a unique culinary culture featuring roasting and grilling lambs. Signature Mongolian delicacies include roasted whole lamb and lamb kebabs. The most famous among them, the “Genghis Khan’s Dish”, was invented by Genghis Khan himself.
Legend has it that the idea came to him when he saw meat being over-cooked on the campfire. To avoid this nuisance, he grabbed a soldier’s steel helmet and placed it over the campfire. By grilling meat on top of the helmet, he prevented meat from coming in direct contact with fire, thus avoided overcooking. This became the primitive form of what has come to be known as teppanyaki today... next page > |
