Karin Tabira , 10 , becomes youngest person authorized to prepare "fugu" pufferfish.

Fugu is a delicacy that can kill if its poisonous parts are not properly removed.

Tabira passed a test this summer that means she is now certified to slice and gut the fish.

She recently served a platter of paper-thin slices of fugu sashimi to the governor of southern Kumamoto region.
