White Shrimp Tempura
The beloved local delicacy: White Shrimp Tempura
About White Shrimp Tempura
White Shrimp Tempura (白えびの天ぷら, Shiro Ebi no Tempura) is a cherished treat in the local area, where white shrimp are also sold fresh. These freshly caught shrimp have a delicate, translucent body with a slight pink tint that shimmers in the sunlight on deck, earning them the nickname "Jewels of Toyama Bay."
In Toyama, dishes like deep-fried white shrimp and tempura are especially popular. They’re often enjoyed as toppings for tempura rice bowls, or made into unique creations like white shrimp burgers or crispy white shrimp crackers, all of which are highly regarded.
