Looks great and tasty, right. One of our favorite foods at home is tempura. I am glad that I could find and buy the Japanese ingredient at the store. I know it isn't easy to find Japanese tempura batter. But, I will share how to make batter on your own if you can't find tempura batter in another article. Before I found the tempura batter at the store, I used to make my own batter to make tempura tempeh. See you in another recipe! By for now! 🙋
