Satsuma shiru
The name "Satsuma" came from "Satsuma chicken" that is used for this dish. Cockfighting was occasionally taken place in the period of Bushi Shimazu to boost the morale of Satsuma. Chicken that lost the fighting was cooked in misoshiru, and it is known as the origin of Satsuma shiru. Soup made with lots of ingredients like meat and vegetables is very nutritious and less salt is needed to season. Pork is also used for Satsuma shiru today.
