As I mentioned in the last entry, there are many kinds of delicious local food in Oita prefecture.
“Tori-ten” means “chicken tempura.” As chicken is usually eaten as fried chicken in Japan like in other countries, but chicken tempura is very unique. It is very soft and juicy, as it is not deep fried. Mustard enriches the taste and it is a good relish that goes well with syochu, which is a popular alcohol in the area, Kyusyu island.
