Tempura

Tempura is a dish made by coating ingredients such as seafood, meat, and vegetables in a batter (mainly made from flour and eggs), then deep-frying them in hot oil.
The crispy coating wraps juicy ingredients, letting you enjoy the aroma and umami of the ingredients.
All across Japan, there are many different kinds of tempura, and they’re generally named after the ingredient, like “XX tempura.”
Ingredients are also often called gu (fillings) or tane (toppings).
Classic options include seafood like “shrimp, Japanese whiting, and squid,” vegetables like “kabocha squash, sweet potato, and eggplant,” and other ingredients like “chicken and shiitake (meat, mushrooms).”
