Yagi = Goat

Filed under: — Andy @ 7:58 pm

One of the special dishes in Okinawa is yagi soup. Yagi = goat. Neither my friend nor I have tried it before so she and I decided to go see what it was like. There was yagi sashimi, or slices of raw goat meat, and the yagi soup. The soup had all sorts of yagi parts in it including bones, meat, liver, cartilage, intestines, and something else I couldnt recognize. Yagi is kind of oily and smelly, but they give you plenty of Yomogi(green bitter vegetable) to eat it with to help with digestion.
