Kakiage

[fub]

I’ve been on a manga-reading spree these days. It all started out with Dungeon Meshi, which merges my interest in RPGs and dungeon delving with my interest in cooking and eating. From there, I branched out to other manga, with a specific focus on manga featuring cooking and food. One of the manga that I came across with and really liked was Isekai

Yum! I'm sure I'd like kakiage. :)

I think you would! If you want to know what it should look like, you could watch this video... my version definitively lacked that crispiness...

I bookmarked that, thanks! I haven't eaten since I have a doc appointment and he might want to take blood, but when I get home I want some fat and carbs! :)

I don't think I've had kakiage, but it sounds delicious! Looks like other kinds of fried fritter things I've made. They do end up being quite filling even on their own!

This recipe uses flour, and when we made it again with more water, it was much more crispy. But I'm not sure what you could use as a substitute for wheat flour that would give the same crispiness...

Oh, there's plenty of GF flour blends that I'm sure would do the trick. You can even find GF panko in these parts.

Oh, wow. I don't regularly have to cook for people with GF requirements, so I never really did a deep-dive into alternatives. Good to know.

Oh my god, drool! That looks SO good!
