How to cook

Plating & presentation

Serve immediately on a wire rack or folded paper. Arrange by vegetable type in a tall, airy pile. The dipping sauce goes in a small bowl alongside with grated daikon.

Dana's tip

The batter must be ice cold and barely mixed. Lumps are essential — they create the irregular, feathery texture that defines great tempura. Make the batter at the very last moment.
