Benihana is one of the most famous teppanyaki and hibachi restaurants known for their elaborate cooking demonstrations and delicious food. Teppanyaki is a Japanese-style cooking method where a coal fire was topped with a flat iron top used as a cooking surface. Today most teppanyaki cookers are electric, and it's moved from inside the home to become a performance art with food. The hibachi is also part of this traditional Japanese cooking method over coals, but the hibachis use a grated top for grilling meats. This recipe highlights the teppanyaki style of cooking fried rice but is adapted for your home kitchen. This recipe has all the original flavors, but we will leave the cooking performance to you. We hope you enjoy our recipe for Teppanyaki Fried Rice and have learned something about the history of traditional Japanese cooking.
