2223.0. "Tempura" by IAMOK::LEVENSALER () Thu Jan 25 1990 18:52

    I am looking for a recipe for Shrimp Tempura.  I had the shrimp tempura
    at a Japenese restaurant in Maynard and it was great.  I'm wondering if
    anyone out there knows how to make the batter, how long you cook it
    etc..  The restaurant also served it with a sauce that wasn't as heavy
    as a soy sauce, any ideas on what this might be also?
    
    Thanks a bunch,

    Hi,
    
    We do alot at our house.  You can buy a box mix for the batter, and the
    sauce is called Bull Sauce.  "Golden Dipt" brande name Tempura Batter
    Mix.   Bull-Bulldog Vegtable and Fruit Sauce (Burlin IGA is where I
    have found this).  You only need to cook until shrimp turns pink.
    
    Enjoy!!!

    mix 1 cup of ice cold water with 1 egg, 1/4 tsp. salt, 1/4 tsp of
    baking soda, and 1 cup of cake flour.
    
    just before you are ready to fry, sprinkle 1/3 cup of cake flour
    over the top of the batter and blend just enough to mix slightly.
    Batter will be lumpy.
    
    keep the bowl of batter in a larger bowl half filled with ice to
    keep the batter very cold while dipping your shrimp or vegtables.
    
    
    
    
    
    
         I used this with zucchini and mushrooms and it was very good.
