📜 Origin & History
Teriyaki developed during the Edo period (1603-1868) in Japan as a cooking technique in which fish or meat is marinated and grilled with a glazing sauce made from soy sauce, mirin, and sugar. The name is derived from 'teri' (gloss) and 'yaki' (grilled). Originally used for fish, the method was transferred to beef in the 20th century, especially after World War II through Western influences.
