Nagoya Tebasaki

In Nagoya cooking, tebasaki usually refers to tebasaki karaage: chicken wings fried without a batter, brushed with a sweet-savoury sauce and sprinkled with spices and sesame. The seasoning gives the wings a peppery, aromatic finish.[1]

The dish is a standard item in local izakaya pubs. It is also sold to take away at prepared-food shops and department-store food halls. Some delicatessens and Chinese restaurants offer simmered versions instead of fried wings.[1]
