Easy Tempura Batter: Recipe and Features
To make easy tempura batter, you will need ice water, eggs, and special tempura flour, which is usually sold in supermarkets. This flour is usually low-gluten and may contain leavening agents, which gives the batter a light and airy texture.
Why is it important not to overmix the batter? The secret to the fluffy and crispy texture of tempura is the low temperature of the batter and the presence of lumps. To maintain the right temperature, the batter is often cooled by adding ice or placing the bowl with the batter in a larger bowl with ice.
Why should you not overmix the batter? Overmixing activates the gluten in the flour, making the batter soft and less suitable for frying.
