    I've eaten at a high-end tempura restaurant in Japan many years ago. It was so good! We sat at a donut shaped table with the chef cooking and serving us from the middle. You don't realize how good tempura is when its served hot and fresh.🙂

    • @Desmond_Kumar
      @Desmond_Kumar Місяць тому +3

      Umami and Savory are technically two distinct profiles. Savory generally refers to spicy+salty with little to no hint of sweetness and activates the salty taste receptors flanking the front portion of your tongue. Umami is used mostly in the context of meat dishes and refers to the salty+meaty taste that lingers for a while. Think of anchovies, for example.
