About Chikuwa Salad
Chikuwa Salad (サラダちくわ, Sarada Chikuwa) is a delightful dish where potato salad is tightly packed into the hollow center of chikuwa (fish cake) and then lightly fried to golden perfection. The crispy exterior of the chikuwa contrasts beautifully with the juicy texture inside, while the rich flavor of the potato salad adds a satisfying depth. Popular not just as a side dish but also enjoyed as a snack or appetizer, this treat has remained a favorite among the people of Kumamoto for generations.
