Japan — torigara stock influenced by Chinese cooking introduction in Meiji-Taisho era
Torigara dashi (鶏ガラ出汁, chicken carcass stock) is one of Japan's most versatile secondary stocks, used for ramen broth, Chinese-influenced Japanese cooking (chuka ryori), and as an alternative to dashi in some applications. Japanese chicken stock differs from French fond de volaille: it is not necessarily clarified and is often made with aromatics — leek, ginger, dried shiitake — for a clean, clear broth with specific savory-sweet character. The standard torigara approach: blanch carcasses first, then simmer 3-4 hours. Chicken stock is the base for oyakodon sauce, many Japanese soups, and restaurant-grade ramen shops' secondary stock alongside pork bone.
