We are all very fond of eating and trying a variety of lavish dishes when we come to eat them.
But there are many dishes that can pose a great risk to life that are available worldwide.
This dish can even cause the deaths of many people if it is served with a careless attitude.
Yes, it’s strange, and it’s true; Fugu is one kind of similar dish that is widely served in Japan.
Fugu is one of the most dangerous fish in the world, also known as Puffer fish. But still, people love eating this.
Tetrodotixin is one of the harmful preservatives that is creating damage in our human body, and this preservative is the most poisonous part of the body of the Fugu fish.
So, when preparing Fugu, chefs take special care to remove the toxic parts so that they do not disturb the flavor of the food.
A strict check is enforced by the laws when Fugu is prepared by hotels, motels, and restaurants.
The chefs take 3–4 years of training to prepare the Fugu.
Only the chefs who are qualified for the training are allowed to prepare the dish.
The dish can lead to the serious death of that person, so this dish cannot be prepared by oneself at home.
Thousands of people in Japan mostly like the liver, which is the tasty and toxic part.
Fugu is a cause of several deaths after its consumption, so it was prohibited in India in 1984, as per the report.
The liver, ovaries, and eyes are the most toxic parts of this fish, and the skin of the fish is the non-poisonous part.
Human muscles are paralyzed when they consume toxic parts.
After a few minutes, the victim finds it hard to breathe, and sooner or later, the victim dies.
But now that the medical field is so developed, the treatment for this case is also available.
In November 2011, a chef from Tokyo served Fugu liver to a customer; for that case, the chef was adjourned.
The customer insisted on serving the liver, and a warning was given to the customer, but still the chef served him. He was paralyzed. A recovery was made.
There were 13–15 restaurants where Fugu was served during the early years. A variety of nutrients are present in fugu, but it is a very expensive dish in Japan.
