Grilled Unagi, a staple in Japanese cuisine, features freshwater eel typically basted with a sweet and savory tare sauce made from soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and sake. The eel is grilled to perfection, offering a tender, smoky flavor paired with a caramelized glaze. Rich in protein and Omega-3 fatty acids, Unagi supports brain health, reduces inflammation, and promotes cardiovascular wellness. It also provides essential vitamins such as B12, which aids in energy production and nerve function. However, due to its higher fat content and the added sugar in the sauce, moderation is key for those monitoring calorie intake or sugar levels. Whether served over rice as Unadon or part of a sushi roll, Grilled Unagi is both a flavorful and nutrient-rich delicacy, embodying the craftsmanship of Japanese cooking traditions.
