Sobre este ingrediente
Heritage Japanese chicken breed (Nagoya Cochin), one of Japan's three premier 'jidori' (heritage) chickens (alongside Hinai-jidori from Akita and Satsuma-jidori from Kagoshima). Aichi Prefecture-bred; raised at lower density and slaughtered at older age (~110 days vs 50 days for industrial broiler) — producing firmer texture and richer flavour. Nagoya Cochin yakitori, oyakodon, and chicken-and-egg dishes anchor Aichi cuisine. Substantial gift-economy retail.
