Kitsune Udon

What is Kitsune Udon?
From @justonecookbook .com

Kitsune literary means ‘fox’ in Japanese. Why do we call the dish – fox udon? There are a few theories about the origin of the name.

One theory says aburaage (deep fried tofu pouch) often appears as a fox’s favorite food in some old Japanese folktales, so people started to call the udon noodle soup topped with aburaage as “kitsune udon.” Another theory is that people call aburaage by “kitsune” because the color of the deep fried tofu pouch is just like the color of a fox. I think this makes the most sense since in Japanese cooking, we express “golden brown color” by saying “cook till fox color”
