About Tendon

Tendon is a Japanese dish that showcases a combination of tempura and rice. The name “tendon” is short for "tempura donburi," meaning a bowl of tempura served over steamed white rice. The tempura typically includes lightly battered and fried shrimp, fish, and vegetables, offering a crispy texture and subtle flavor. While tendon provides satisfying crunch and energy from the rice, the dish is often fried in oil, which can result in higher calorie content and less healthy fat profiles. However, the inclusion of vegetables like sweet potatoes, eggplant, or green beans adds essential vitamins and fiber. Additionally, seafood tempura can contribute protein and omega-3 fatty acids. Tendon represents the balance of indulgence and nutrition typical of Japanese cuisine, making it a delicious option best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
