Japanese SHRIMP Tempura

INGREDIENTS:

* 12 large shrimps
* 1 egg
* 1 cup all purpose flour
* 1/2 cup cold water
* Vegetable oil for frying

PREPARATION:
Remove heads and shells from shrimps without removing tails. Devein the shrimps. Make two or three incisions in the stomach sides of the shrimps to straighten them. Sift flour into a bowl. Pour cold water over the flour and add an egg.


Mix the batter lightly. Heat the oil to 340 degree. Dip the shrimps in the batter. Fry the shrimps for a few min.


----------------------------------------------------
Tempura Variations:

* Kakiage is round mixed tempura. To make kakiage, mix left over tempura batter and thin strips or small
pieces of several ingredients together. Take a scoop of the ingredients in a large spoon and slip them
to 340F degree oil. Make kakiage into your favorite size.
(Scallop Kakiage Recipe)
* Ten-don (Tempura Rice Bowl): Serve hot Japanese rice in a bowl. Dip tempura lightly in tentsuyu
sauce. Place the tempura on top of rice.
* Tempura Udon/ Tempura Soba: Boil udon noodles/soba noodles (the boiling time varies depending on
the types of noodles) and drain. Heat men-tsuyu in a pan and add the udon/soba noodles. Serve the
udon/soba noodle soup in a bowl. Place tempura on top of the noodle soup.

YOKOSUNA if I am not mistaken is a kind of serving SUSHI RESTO'S offer and it is not the name of the resto . I had the chance of having it when I was in Okinawa . It is called YOKOSUNA because of the size of the platter . Naa didto ang tanan dishes that resto has to offer in a small to medium amounts of serving on each and every dish they have sa mga sushi , anything hilaw . It is for the reason na matilawan nimo tanan for an affordable price . I dont know sa Pilipinas ni exist ba diay ni ang Yoko na term but when I was in Okinawa , Sasebo and Yokosuka ... popular man kaayo na ang serving na Yoko in respect atong sumo wrestler cguro hehehe .

share lang ko recipe hints for reference...(usahay recipes call for something nga wa ta kaila kay we know it with another name)

"Cornstarch is also known as cornflour or maize flour. It is very fine flour that is milled from the starch of corn kernels. It is commonly used in Chinese cooking as a thickener and is also used in baking."

Thats a good tip ! Any other easy to remember names for the more complicated and exotic name ? Abi nato ug unsa siya .... kung mahibaw-an nato sa binisaya unsa siya " mao ra man diay to " hehehe like :

- peppercorn : paminta
- bittergourd : ampalaya


In baking , I u havent used any cornstarch yet . I dont if it was asking for it but I do use a lot of baking powder and baking soda .
