In 2019, when the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications conducted a survey on the annual consumption of chicken per household, Oita City ranked first in the nation.

The most popular chicken dish is karaage (Japanese fried chicken), but for people in Oita Prefecture, toriten is as common as karaage.

Whether chicken thighs or chicken breasts are used varies depending on the store and household.

Either way, the chicken is marinated in soy sauce and garlic, dipped in a liquid made from flour, water, and eggs, and then fried in oil.

It is typically eaten with Japanese mustard, ponzu sauce, and kabosu.

This recipe uses skinless, pounded chicken breasts. By stretching the meat a little flat in this way, it becomes soft and easy to eat.

What kind of dish is tempura??

Tempura is made by wrapping ingredients such as seafood, meat, and vegetables in batter made from wheat flour and frying them in oil.

It is one of the typical Japanese dishes.

While tempura is being fried, the moisture in the batter replaces the frying oil, adding the flavor of the oil.

For the batter, use 20% flour based on the weight of the ingredients, eggs 50% based on the weight of the flour, and water 120-150% based on the weight of the flour.

When the batter becomes sticky, it becomes difficult for water to displace, which results in the loss of the crispy texture that is typical of tempura.

To prevent this, use cold eggs, water, and flour. Make the batter just before frying.

The recommended temperature for frying is 180 degrees for meat and fish, 160 degrees for carbohydrate-based foods such as potatoes, and 150 degrees for foods that want to make the most of their green color, such as shiso and shishito.

Anyone can easily make tempura using commercially available tempura flour. Some products do not contain eggs, so vegans can also use them. 👉 Tempura that anyone can make well
