Butaniku no shogayaki (豚肉の生姜焼き)
butaniku = pork ginger = shoga shoga yaki = ginger pork
Shogayaki is a Japanese home-cooked dish made by seasoning pork with ginger, soy sauce, and mirin.
Shogayaki loved by everyone.It is a menu that is eaten frequently in every household. You can buy at a bento shop also can eat at restaurant.
The cooking method is different for each household, such as marinating the meat in seasonings and grilling it, or coating the grilled meat with sauce.
The soy sauce and mirin seasoning go well with rice, and the ginger has an appetite-boosting effect.
This dish is sure to give you a boost of energy, thanks in part to the fatigue-relieving effects of vitamin B1 contained in the pork.
This time I am using meat that is sold for shogayaki. Meat called “komagire” or “kiriotoshi” is also good.
Kiriotoshi has only one part of meat, but Komagire has a mixture of various parts such as thigh, shoulder, rib, and arm. I like to use komagire because it contains moderate fat. The size of a slice of Kiriotoshi is larger than that of Komagire, so it is used depending on the dish.
What kind of food is ginger??
It is used not only as a spice but also as an ingredient in sweets and Chinese medicine.
The spicy component of ginger promotes blood circulation, digestion, and has antibacterial effects, while the aromatic component increases appetite and has anti-inflammatory effects.
The medicinal ingredients are contained just under the skin, so it is best to use it without removing the skin. I lightly scrape the surface with a spoon before using.

Buta Shogayaki recipe COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
I recommend using non-sticky “cooking flour”.
①Lightly coat both sides of the pork loin with wheat flour. Sprinkling the meat with flour will thicken the seasonings a little, making it easier for the meat to entangle with the flavor.
②Cut into slices about 3-5mm thick.
③Heat the sesame oil and grill the meat.
④When the color of both sides changes, take out the meat and fry the onion.
To save time, it’s a good idea to heat the onions in the microwave first.
⑤When the onions have softened, put the meat back in and add the soy sauce, sake, mirin, and sliced ginger and stir-fry.
⑥Leave it for a while to let the flavors blend.
