Japanese Cuisine Atsu Age
High Resolution JPEG Picture of Aburaage (油揚げ abura-age or aburage) is a Japanese food product made from soybeans. It is produced by cutting tofu into thin slices and deep frying first at 110~120 °C then at 180~200 °C again. Abura-age is often used to wrap inari-zushi (稲荷寿司), and is added to miso soup. It is also added to udon noodle dishes which are called kitsune-udon because of legends that foxes (kitsune) like deep-fried tofu. Aburaage can also be stuffed e.g. with nattō before frying again. There is a thicker variety known as atsu-age (厚揚げ) or nama-age (生揚げ).
