help/FAQJanuary 7th is National Tempura Day
Tempura is a basic yet popular dish in Japanese cooking. Seafood or vegetables are dipped in a thin batter of flour and water and deep fried in oil. Typical tempura can include shrimp, squid, yams, mushrooms or okra.
While you can find tempura in virtually any Japanese restaurant, it's a little known fact that the dish was originally introduced to Japan by Portuguese traders and missionaries!
