Cooking tips

  • It's essential to remove all moisture from the tofu so that the starch can properly bind the mixture without crumbling, even without flour or eggs.
  • Grating kohlrabi by hand rather than blending it in a mixer helps prevent bitterness or sharpness—this method maximizes its natural sweetness.
  • Using potato starch instead of flour or tempura coating ensures the characteristic crisp, chewy texture of potato starch when cooked.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking gluten-free dishes that are light and savory without using flour or eggs.
  • Individuals who enjoy a special side dish or appetizer with the subtle sweetness of kohlrabi and the chewy texture of starch.
