Everything about Katsudon totally explained
A
katsudon (カツ丼) is a popular
Japanese food, a bowl of rice topped with a
deep-fried pork cutlet, egg, and condiments. Variations include sauce katsudon (with
Worcestershire sauce), demi katsudon (with
demi-glace and often
green peas, a specialty of
Okayama), shio katsudon (with salt, another Okayama variety), shōyu-dare katsudon (with
soy sauce,
Niigata style), and
miso katsudon (a favorite in
Nagoya). Beef and chicken can substitute for the pork.
The dish takes its name from the Japanese words
tonkatsu (for pork cutlet) and
donburi (for
rice bowl dish).
It has become a modern
ritual tradition for Japanese students to eat katsudon the night before taking a major test or school entrance exam. This is because "katsu" is a
homophone of the verb 勝つ
katsu, meaning "to win" or "to be victorious".
