Sukiyaki
This is a typical contemporary Japanese dish featuring beef.
There was the Japanese cultural belief, following Buddhist teaching, that eating meat was traditionally considered repugnant.However, in the Meiji Period- 1868-1912-, when Western cooking came into Japan and eating meat ceased to be a taboo,
Sukiyaki became popular.
Beef, vegetables and tofu are put into an iron pot, seasoned with soy sauce and sugar, heated, then dipped in a raw, beaten egg and eaten.
