Jang Ho-jun's Japanese Shrimp Tempura
Authentic Japanese-style snowflake shrimp tempura with an exceptionally crispy texture by inhibiting gluten formation
Ingredients needed 2 servings
Recipe
Cooking tips
- Overmixing the batter develops gluten and makes the tempura soggy, so mix lightly, leaving lumps visible.
- Removing the water sac from the shrimp tail prevents oil splattering during frying.
- For beginners, make the batter slightly thinner than the recipe, give the shrimp a light first fry, then dip in batter again and fry a second time for a foolproof, voluminous, crispy result.
Recommended for
- Those who want to successfully make Japanese restaurant-style snowflake shrimp tempura at home.
- Beginner cooks who've struggled with tempura batter turning soggy quickly.
