How to prepare butete, the Japanese way
(http://factsanddetails.com/)

To prepare fugu a cook must follow 30 prescribed steps. After the poisonous parts have been removed with a hocho knife the fish is cut into pieces and then washed under water to remove the toxins and blood. The poisoned organs are placed in special bags that must be kept under lock and key and disposed of like radioactive waste in a special incinerator.

Some chefs say that removing the portions that contain the toxins is a relatively simple process. Others disagree. The poisonous parts can vary between different species of blowfish. One marine biologist told the Daily Yomirui, “Even professionals have trouble determining the poisonous part of some blowfish because they differ by type. The same fish needs to checked by more than one person with proper knowledge.”

Licensing of Fugu Chefs

It takes about 11 years to become a full-fledged fugu chef. All cooks in Tokyo that prepare fugu are licensed. They have go through a three-year apprenticeship under a master, take intensive courses, pass a written exam and show skill making about a dozen types of fugu dishes.

Mabini-style

An apprentice studying to get his fugu license told National Geographic, "There's a written exam that lasts two hours. They next day they hand you fugu, knife and twin pans.” In 20 minutes test-takers must put all the poisonous parts in one pan and all the edible parts in the other, label the parts with plastic tags (red for toxic, black for edible) and prepare a meal in an artful arrangement. The hardest part of the test is separating out the female ovaries, one of the deadliest parts, which look almost identical to the male’s testicles, which are a delicacy. If you mix them you fail the test. Around 800 to 900 people take the test every year, with about two thirds of those taking it passing.

fugu (butete) trivia in japan

Fugu bones have been found in burial mounds from the Jomon period (10,000 B.C. to 300 B.C.). Fugu was mentioned in Japan's first historical records, written in 720.

In the late 1500s, fugu was banned by Toyotomi Hideyoshi after a mass poisoning of troops took place before an invasion of Korea. The ban remained in place for 200 years until, one story goes, Japan's first prime minister Hirobumu Ito ate some and survived and enjoyed it so much he demanded that the ban be lifted.

The Japanese Emperor is forbidden from even touching fugu. In the Edo period (1603-1867) samurai were ordered to extinguish their family lines if they became poisoned.

FUGUSO

by Chiconiwa Walay Asawa

Gipangita kas mga tawo gagmay'g mata
Sa ilang panimpla lamian daw ka
Sa local nga mangingisda gepakayano ka
Apan sa tinuod haska diay nimong mahala.

Sa imong porma kataw-an gayod ka
Hangkang buanga... perteng lingina
Kinsay may nagdahom lamian diay ka
Kaniadto manginhasay labay-labayan lang ka.

Usahay ako makapangutana bisan tiaw-tiaw
Unsa kaha kung ako usab motilaw
Sinugba man o law-oyon o kinilaw
Lami usab siguro kung ikaw iparis sa bahaw.

Bolinaw sa Balingsya dire kanunay'ng gelawgaw
Butete sa Caingget iladong mahilig sa puririt
Bangus sa Cogtong lami pa sa syoktong
Ug takla sa Calape maoy pakapin niini.

Butete, fuguso - mahal ka ng puso ko
Halika samahan mo itong aming grupo
Tubag Bohol, pwede na kaya ito?
Bon appetit, ali mag inum-inum na tayo.
