Today Bon Appétit joins Chef Kazuchi Hotta at his restaurant Shunsai Fuku Hotta in Tokyo to observe his mastery of fugu. Fugu, also known as pufferfish, is a seasonal winter delicacy in Japan, however, it contains a deadly poison that must be meticulously worked around and removed during prep. It is a process chefs must train for many years to master to serve it safely.
