Preparation
- Prepare shrimp by taking off shell and deveining.
- Make 4 slits down the stomach. Flip shrimp on the side and diagonally slice 4 more slits on each side. (This will keep the shrimp straight when cooked.)
- In a medium bowl, beat egg and soda water.
- Heat a pot of oil to 350˚F (180˚C).
- Then add cake flour and mix, but keep it clumpy. Do NOT over-mix.
- Dredge shrimp up to the tail and carefully place into frying oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until shrimp is fully cooked. Place tempura on paper towel to absorb oil or a wired rack to drain excess oil.
- For the dipping sauce, combine soy sauce and mirin. If using, dissolve dashi in the hot water and add to the soy sauce and mirin.
- Arrange assorted tempura on a bowl of rice.
