Deep-Fried Wagyu Beef Cutlet | Gyukatsu Recipe

Do you know Japanese food called Gyukatsu??🐮
In Japanese, GYU means beef and KATSU means fried food with bread crumbs.

The original type of Gyukatsu is the cutlet (côtelette) , which was introduced to Japan from France in the early Meiji era(1868-1912).
In those days, veal was used and the dish was pan-fried rather than deep-fried.
Later, Japanese original arrangements were added, such as frying in a large amount of oil like tempura, using thick slices of meat, and using Japanese bread crumbs.

After the Taisho era(1912-1926), Tonkatsu, made with pork instead of beef, became the most common type of cutlet in the eastern part of Japan, including Tokyo.
However, beef tended to be preferred in the west, such as Osaka, Kobe, and Kyoto, and Tonkatsu never became mainstream.

As you can see from the above, both Gyukatsu and Tonkatsu are originally based on the French cuisine "cutlet".

It was in 1972 that the thick slice and rare Gyukatsu styles in this video became available.
It is said to have been invented by a Gyukatsu specialty restaurant in Tokyo.
