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.
Rice is a staple food in Japan. In all most every family, there is a rice cooker. There is variety of Japanese rice brands such as Koshihikari and Hitomebore.
Miso soup is a traditional Japanese soup. It's base is "dashi" (Japanese fish stock) and Miso paste. Common added ingredients are Tofu, Green onion and deep‐fried tofu but differs by personal preference. The type of miso is different from region.

Ayako
Hello!
My name is Ayako.
Our tempura restaurant is called Tenmasa, and it is located in Okachi-machi, Taito-ku (the area known as Tokyo Old Town). We have been running this family business for three generations.
As the owner of a tempura restaurant, I have watched this traditional Japanese dish become less popular in Japan. Due to tempura’s extensive prep process and complicated manner of cooking, many people have started to perceive it as being too fancy to make at home.
For many years, I have wanted to change this trend. Tempura could become as popular of a fast food meal as hamburgers or kebab, which have enjoyed widespread acceptance among the younger generation.
Let’s cook with us!
