中国有一句老话，叫做“拼死吃河豚”，而最嗜食河豚的国家是日本，仅东京就有1500多家特别的餐馆烹烧河豚鱼菜。日本早在江户时代就已经盛行吃河豚，它成了庶民买不起的高级食用鱼。吃河豚火锅，称“铁炮锅”，因河豚看似炮筒而得名。用鱼白泡制的“白子酒”，味美而喻之“西施乳”。冬季河豚生鱼片又称为“味之王”。 一般河豚鱼料理店为食客提供包括河豚鱼刺身和河豚鱼火锅等在内的河豚鱼全席套餐，同一条河豚鱼经河豚料理师精湛的手艺加工后，会以近似于艺术品的形式出现在食客的面前，一般这种河豚全席套餐包括河豚鱼刺身、汆河豚鱼皮或河豚鱼皮冻、烤河豚鱼、炸河豚鱼、河豚鱼火锅，最后还有河豚鱼烩饭等，喝酒的人别忘了点一杯河豚鱼翅酒。 河豚鱼刺身最能代表河豚鱼的原本的味道，由于河豚鱼肉较其它鱼肉有嚼头，因此片得很薄摆在一个大盘里，吃时夹2-3片沾内放葱花和辣味萝卜泥由柚子汁和醋调制的调料，味道鲜美。
