Shrimp tempura has attracted numerous food enthusiasts with its crispy exterior and succulent, tender shrimp. At the heart of shrimp tempura lies the fusion between fresh shrimp and a delicious tempura batter. Large and juicy shrimp are meticulously peeled, deveined, and gently coated in a batter made from a combination of flour, cornstarch, and ice-cold water. The shrimp, now adorned in their golden jackets, take a gentle plunge into boiling oil. The magical process of the batter crisping up unfolds, creating a lacy, ethereal coating that encapsulates the shrimp’s natural sweetness. The result is a harmonious blend of textures—crispy on the outside, tender on the inside.
