Tsukudani (佃煮) is a Japanese dish made by preserving food, usually seafood, beef, or vegetables, by simmering them in soy sauce and sweet sake. Often used as a topping for rice, tsukudani offers a savory and rich flavor, with common ingredients including fish, shrimp, seaweed, and even grasshoppers.
This method of preservation dates back to the Edo Period (1603-1868), and while it can be made with various foods, it remains a staple in Japanese cuisine, adding depth to everyday meals.
