Homemade Tempura Batter
  1. Chill the water and carbonated water.

  2. Mix the flour with ¼ cup (30g) of the potato starch and chill for 30 minutes; keep the remaining starch for coating.

  3. Prep all tempura ingredients by washing, cutting, and drying thoroughly.

  4. Heat the oil to 180°C / 356°F.

  5. In a bowl, combine the chilled water and carbonated water, add the egg, and whisk gently without creating foam.

  6. Add the flour mixture in thirds, stirring lightly with chopsticks in a cross motion; don’t overmix and stop in under a minute, lumps are good.

  7. Add 3 ice cubes if you want the batter extra cold.

  8. Test the oil with a drop of batter; it should sizzle and float.

  9. Lightly coat each ingredient in the reserved starch, shake off excess, then dip into the batter.

  10. Fry until crispy and lightly golden, cooking one type at a time.

  11. Drain on a wire rack.
