This is a free illustration of Simmered Ginger Beef (gyūniku no shigureni)—a traditional Japanese dish made by gently simmering thinly sliced beef in a mixture of soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and ginger. It’s a beloved household favorite and a staple in bento boxes, especially for pairing with rice, udon, or onigiri.

The gentle simmering method allows the flavors to infuse fully, creating a rich, comforting taste. You can add ingredients like onions, burdock root, or even sake or dashi to deepen the flavor. Store leftovers in the fridge for 2–3 days, or freeze them to enjoy later as a time-saving side.
