Juryu Aka-tempura

Aka-tempura (Red Tempura) is a soul food of Shimane Prefecture, made by kneading red chili peppers into fish paste, coating it with panko breadcrumbs, and deep-frying it. It is the flagship product of Juryu Kamaboko, which was founded in Higashi-Izumo, Matsue City, in 1926. It is said that Aka-tempura originated from a local flavor devised by a kamaboko craftsman in post-war Hamada. Today, it can be found lined up in supermarkets throughout Shimane Prefecture and is a staple menu item in izakayas. The name comes from the red chili peppers visible in the cross-section. The spicy kick, crispy coating, and fluffy fish flavor are addictive. It is delicious as is or lightly toasted, making it a perfect snack to accompany alcohol. It is an indispensable soul food on Shimane's dining tables, loved by children and adults alike.
