Japanese curry, a beloved comfort food, has a fascinating backstory. Originating in India, it went to Japan during the Meiji period. The Europeans added a twist by inventing curry powder, making it accessible to all. The result? Japanese curry, commonly served with rice, earned the nickname "curry rice."

While many opt for the convenience of commercial curry roux, take a different route, the from-scratch path. Get ready to savor the deep, complex flavors that only come from slow cooking, where onions caramelize to perfection. Sure, it takes time, and patience is your secret ingredient, but trust us, the reward is worth every second! Alongside your curry creation, you'll whip up tempting side dishes. You’ll make a crisp and refreshing salad dressed in homemade sesame dressing and a Japanese-style potato salad.
