Despite its foreign origins,<strong> curry is one of the most popular dishes in Japan<\/strong> <strong>today<\/strong>. How did curry find its place in Japanese culture, and why is it so popular?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"curry-history\">The History of Japanese Curry<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Curry was introduced to Japan at the end of the 19<sup>th<\/sup> century<\/strong>, during the Meiji era (1868 \u2013 1912). During this time, India was under British administration, and it is said that it was a British sailor who introduced curry to Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But according to historians, this romanticized story of a lonely sailor bringing carry in Japan is far from the truth. At the time, UK maritime forces had introduced curry aboard its vessels for a long time. This Indian curry, slightly revised to meet Western tastes, had an ideal nutritional intake and could be easily adapted to the cooking conditions on a boat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Japan was facing quite similar difficulties aboard its navy ships: sailors had nutritional deficiencies, but serving bread and more flour-based dishes were difficult because of the tastes of Japanese. Since <a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Japan%E2%80%93United_Kingdom_relations\" target=\"_blank\">Japan and the United Kingdom had friendly relations<\/a> (which were to become an alliance in 1902), it didn\u2019t take a long time before <strong>curry was served aboard Japanese ships<\/strong>. And this is still the case until nowadays: every Friday the Japanese navy can enjoy a delicious curry!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30234602\/DSCF2319-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"A Japanese curry with vegetables\" class=\"wp-image-74148\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30234602\/DSCF2319-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30234602\/DSCF2319-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30234602\/DSCF2319-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30234602\/DSCF2319.jpg 1182w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Japanese curry with vegetables<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Little by little, <strong>the English recipe was adapted to meet Japanese tastes<\/strong>. After that, curry appeared in the menu of school canteens, and it was the beginning of the love story between the Japanese and their curry. In the 1960s, curry became popular in restaurants and supermarkets, and the craze continued to grow. <strong>In the 2000s, it is estimated that the Japanese were eating more curry than sushi or tempura!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"japanese-love-curry\">Why Japanese People Love Curry<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many reasons explain the success of curry in Japan. Usually served with rice, it perfectly fits the food habits of the Japanese. We can find some vegetables and some meat in a curry, but the sauce is what really matters. In some dishes, like<em> katsu-kare<\/em> (\u30ab\u30c4\u30ab\u30ec\u30fc, a  breaded deep-fried cutlet with curry sauce), the curry is mostly sauce. It is the flavours of this sauce that seduced Japan. Adapted to Japanese tastes, <strong>it is not very spicy and actually slightly sweet, classic flavours featured of<a href=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/interests\/food\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"ek-link\"> Japan cuisine<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Japanese curry is both <strong>cheap and easy to prepare<\/strong>! Curry roux (\u30ab\u30ec\u30fc\u30eb\u30fc) can be bought for a few hundred yen in any supermarket in the country. <strong>Easy and quick, it is a perfect family dish<\/strong>. For those who don\u2019t want to spend any time in the kitchen, there is even instant curry, already cooked and ready to eat with a bowl of rice. The souvenir shops of some places sell some instant curries enhanced with some of the specialities of the area. For example, in Yonezawa, you can find instant curry with <em>wagyu<\/em> beef from the area, <a class=\"ek-link ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/yonezawa-wagyu-beef\/\">one of the three best beef of Japan<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30234859\/curry-japonais-8023-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"An instant japanese curry with wagyu beef\" class=\"wp-image-74149\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30234859\/curry-japonais-8023-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30234859\/curry-japonais-8023-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30234859\/curry-japonais-8023-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30234859\/curry-japonais-8023-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30234859\/curry-japonais-8023.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Wagyu<\/em> beef instant curry from Yonezawa<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Japanese have become so fond of this curry sauce that it can be found in a lot of other dishes. For example, curry can be used as a sauce for noodles like for the <strong><em>kare udon<\/em><\/strong> (\u30ab\u30ec\u30fc\u3046\u3069\u3093), udon noodles in curry sauce, or for <strong>instant noodles<\/strong> that have a \u201cJapanese curry\u201d version which is one of the most popular. Personally, my favourite curry food in Japan is probably the <strong><em>kare-pan<\/em><\/strong> (\u30ab\u30ec\u30fc\u30d1\u30f3), a small deep-fried bread filled with Japanese curry sauce.

But as I said, the important part of Japanese curry is the sauce. The texture should not be too liquid or too thick, so it is important to be careful about the amount of water and the quantity of curry roux you use in your preparation. But for other ingredients, you can prepare a curry with whatever you like. You can purchase pre-made curry roux that does not contain any meat, fish, or dairy products, though I&#8217;d advise you to check the full list of ingredients.<strong> If you&#8217;re a vegan or vegetarian, you can easily cook a vegetable Japanese curry by making your own curry roux<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Many commercial curry roux contains wheat flour<\/strong>, so if you suffer from a gluten allergy, <a class=\"ek-link ek-link\" href=\"#curry-roux-recipe\">prepare your own curry roux<\/a> and use rice flour instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"578\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30235302\/curry-japonais4-1024x578.jpg\" alt=\"curry roux that can be bought in shops\" class=\"wp-image-74153\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30235302\/curry-japonais4-1024x578.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30235302\/curry-japonais4-500x282.jpg 500w, https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30235302\/curry-japonais4-1536x866.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30235302\/curry-japonais4.jpg 1913w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A common curry roux from Japanese stores<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Ingredients for a <strong>Japanese Curry <\/strong>Recipe<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Serves up to 6 people<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>400g of meat (beef, chicken, or lamb)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 or 2 onions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 or 3 carrots<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>200g of potatoes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>600 \u2013 700ml of water (depending on the curry roux)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 block of curry roux<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30235328\/curry-japonais1-1024x577.jpg\" alt=\"ingredients to prepare a japanese curry\" class=\"wp-image-74154\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30235328\/curry-japonais1-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30235328\/curry-japonais1-500x282.jpg 500w, https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30235328\/curry-japonais1-1536x865.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/30235328\/curry-japonais1.jpg 1909w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The common ingredients of a Japanese curry include potatoes, onions, carrots and meat.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Brown the onions and meat in a large saucepan.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>2.
