  • @chiar0scur0
    @chiar0scur0 4 місяці тому +6

    Kenji's teriyaki criteria so far:
    Prefers Japanese style rice, sticky but not mushy
    Salad in a separate container, dressing not too sweet.
    Gyoza: ideally potsticker style with fresh dumplings, but deep fried can also be good if the skins are crispy and not greasy or tough. Sauce- can be any style as long as it's not too sweet.
    Chicken: thighs, marinaded and grilled fresh, chopped then sauced and served (no chopping then reheating).

    • @rockinmel1
