As "Day of the Ox" on July 22 approaches, "Chicken Kabayaki" (Marudai Foods) was released as a substitute for "eel", which has been declining in the amount of fry purchased and the price is rising. .. This is the first product in Japan where chicken is finished in a shape like "eel opening". Is it really a substitute for eel? I tried to eat it at the En-eating editorial department!

The "eel kabayaki-like shape" is finished by Marudai Foods' patented manufacturing method. Approximately 100g (3.53oz) of chicken is fluffy roasted, and it certainly looks like an eel. Sprinkle the included sauce to make it even more eel-like before eating.

When you take a bite, the sweet and rich scent of kabayaki goes through your nose. The taste is exactly "eel kabayaki". The texture is a little "chicken-like", but it's also chewy and ant! The effect of the special sauce may be great, but if you think "I'm eating eel ...", the inside of my mouth is already "eel kabayaki" ... I think it's similar. It was. It looks good as a side dish for sake!

The price is 380 yen per pack. Available at supermarkets nationwide. Why don't you try "Chicken Kabayaki" which is cheaper than "Unagi" whose price is soaring, and next "Day of the Ox"?
