Eel, a Delightful Summertime Delight

Eel, which is in season from May to July, is a high-protein nutritious food that is good for those with a weak constitution. While eel can be enjoyed steamed or in soup, the most popular preparation is Grilled Eel.

To prepare Grilled Eel, start by cleaning the eel and seasoning it with two simple ingredients: soy sauce and red pepper paste. Place the eel on a hot grill or pan, pre-grill it, and then apply the seasoning to bake it, ensuring it doesn’t burn. For a Salted Grilled Eel variation, grill the eel evenly with salt.

Serve the Grilled Eel with garlic slices and pickled ginger, allowing the chewy and savory taste of the eel to mingle with the complementary flavors. Eel is a favorite among men and women of all ages, as the seasoning of salt, soy sauce, and red pepper paste can be adjusted to suit individual preferences.
