Meaning

捏 (つくね, Tsukune) is Tsukune, a Japanese food (snacks).

What is Tsukune?

Tsukune are chicken meatballs made using a basic recipe of ground chicken, egg, and potato starch. However, the exact recipe depends on the restaurant. For example, some restaurants will add finely chopped pieces of cartilage to the mix, giving the meatball a crunchy texture. In addition to tare and shio , some restaurants may serve their tsukune with a raw egg yolk for dipping.
