What makes Japanese curry so special?<\/h2>\n\n

Japanese curry has a fascinating history that is closely linked to Japan\u2019s cultural influences. Curry originally comes from India, but reached Japan via Britain in the 19th century. During the Meiji period (1868\u20131912), Japan opened up to Western influences after a long period of isolation, and with the establishment of a navy modelled on the British, curry also found its way into Japanese cuisine.<\/p>\n\n

British sailors had brought with them a simple and nutritious curry dish, characterised by the addition of meat, potatoes, carrots and onions. This \u201cWestern\u201d curry was adopted by Japanese chefs and adapted over time to local tastes. The first written mention of curry in a Japanese cookbook dates from 1872, and by 1910 the version of kare raisu that is typical today had developed in Yokosuka, a naval base.<\/p>\n\n
