Recipe
Cooking tips
- Squid skin contains taurine and umami compounds, so keeping it on adds deep flavor throughout the fritter.
- Using bonito broth instead of salt enhances the seasoning while boosting umami intensity in one step.
- Use more oil than you think necessary—this ensures the outer layer stays intact and achieves a crisp, cookie-like crunch.
Recommended for
- Those who struggle with soggy edges when making pan-fried pancakes or those craving a crispy, snack-like texture.
- Anyone seeking a hearty side dish or appetizer packed with squid and vegetables, offering satisfying bite and excellent taste with rice.
