#homemade Tanuki Udon. A typical Japanese dish consisting Japanese wheat noodles with bits of deep‐fried tempura batter. Tanuki means Japanese raccoon. Someone says the name of Tanuki Udon came from the contrast of "Kitsune (fox) Udon". In Japanese folklore, fox, raccoons (and cats) are special animals who fool people. However we don't have "cat udon" #たぬきうどん
