Tenpura was not originally Japanese cuisine. Its cooking style was brought
by Portuguese missionaries of the sixteenth century. Some of the Japanese don't know this origin of tenpura, but it is sure that tenpura is one of the Japanese favorite food nowadays. Seafood, shellfish, vegetables, edible wild plants are dipped in dough or batter and deep-fried. Before you eat it, add grated radish to "tentuyu", which is soy-based dipping sauce. Then dip tenpura into it and enjoy eating it. Tenpura lover actually don't use soy-based dipping sauce. They instead use salt mixed with powdered "maccha". You can enjoy the orginal tast of the ingredient by dipping into such salt and eat. Anyway tenpura is best when it is hot so eat it when it is served. If you want to eat delicious tenpura, eat it at a tempura specialty restaurant, which is a restaurant serving only tenpura. They use high qualified oil and fresh ingredients. |
