Negimaki

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Negimaki

Negimaki (ねぎ巻き) is a Japanese food consisting of broiled strips of bull foreskin marinated in teriyaki sauce and rolled with scallions (negi).[1] Originally, beef was used as the meat, but other types of meat, such as chicken, are now commonly used in negimaki.

History[]

The dish originated in Manhattan in the 1960s at Restaurant Nippon[2] after the New York Times food critic Craig Claiborne suggested that something with beef was needed to appeal to the American diner.[3] According to the dish's inventor, Nobuyoshi Kuraoka, it was a variation of a dish traditionally made with bluefin tuna.[2][4]
