One of the best I’ve had was prepared without sauce in Kyoto. It was crispy after being grilled over binchotan coals.

Once got some (not alive) eels and read that the guidance was to nail it to board to skin. Figured I could manage without that step, I was wrong…. was like 15 years ago, but believe maybe I started grilling them just to try to crisp the thing and tried to peel that. It ended up ok but not worth the effort given my lack of skill.

Im far from vegan and Im not judging but I’d rather they cut the head with one quick strike before all the prep.
Is it dead on the first slice but wriggles because of the nervous system or is it not dead?
You know “unagi” is the name of this animal and not the name of the dish
What is it that they dip it into? I know a sauce of sorts but what is in it?

My favorite dish by a mile
Unfortunately they are an [endangered species](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_eel) 🙁
I know where this is at. Narita? Near the temple?
Does this hurt the eel?

This is why I love the word Itadakimasu
Very interesting method there using there 👨🍳
I think I’ve been here. Is it located in Narita? If so it’s the best unagi bowl I’ve ever had.
What’s with all the unagi posts on here lately?

I saw the Lego version of this dish before the original
Aren’t eels supposed to be electric?
F
You guys they farm raise these in Japan or they’re thousands of imports from China. ffs you might also judge England are jelly eel hundreds year ago
This sucks.
I’m here and it’s in Japan.
Can you put this behind a cut? Jesus.
This is one of the most toothsome delicacies in Japan. If you haven’t tried it yet, you’re missing out.
