![[Kyoto, Gion] Tempura Cooking Class and Meal](http://airkitchen.me/picture/experience/13566/2.png)
Tempura is a traditional Japanese dish made by coating vegetables and seafood in tempura batter and deep-frying them.
It is a dish with great depth, as its texture and flavor vary depending on the cook.
Tempura (天ぷら) is a classical Portuguese dish brought to and popularized by Japan, consisting of seafood or vegetables that have been battered and deep fried. Tempura is a typical home-style cooking in Japan. It is often referred to as a representative dish to Japan. Although there are various theories, it is said that Tokugawa Ieyasu, the general of the Edo period, liked tempura so much that he allegedly died from eating too much.
