Tempura is a Japanese dish made by coating seafood, vegetables, and other ingredients in a wheat flour-based batter and deep-frying them in oil. To bring out the natural flavors of seasonal ingredients, it is often served with tempura dipping sauce or salt. Common ingredients include shrimp, squid, eggplant, and pumpkin. Believed to have originated in Portugal, it is one of the world’s most famous Japanese dishes.
