There are certain dishes that are always available at traditional izakayas in Nagoya. One of them is the Nagoya specialty “Dote-ni.” “Dote-ni” is a dish made by simmering pork offal and beef tendons in red miso and mirin. In Nagoya, this dish is made with “Haccho miso,” a traditional miso made in Okazaki City.
“Haccho miso” is a high-quality soybean miso made only from soybeans, salt, and water, and is aged for two years while strictly adhering to a 370-year-old manufacturing method. Hatcho miso has a deep richness and unique astringency, and because the smelly innards are simmered in this miso, the distinctive taste is eliminated and the flavor is enhanced.
Another dish is “fried chicken wings.” It is a dynamic dish in which half a young chicken is fried and grilled as is, then dipped in a secret sauce that has been aged and flavored with various condiments. This has become a taste that many Nagoya residents desire. There are many izakayas in Nagoya that serve “fried chicken wings,” and each store competes with each other to come up with the best secret sauce, creating a taste that is unique to Nagoya.
