How to make Crunchy Tempura Flakes For Sushi @ www.sushivids

[TheOhy]

how to put it on the sushi ? only dip and cook?

[frezneditch]

Great video, thank you!

[JMtheCONQUERER]

will canola oil work too?

[arjenmiddelb]

When i tried this the tempura sunk and stuck to the bottom of the pan, but otherwise it worked, i guess the oil wasnt hot enough. thanks for the vid!

[simplyyerr]

Yayy! Thanks for the vid! I'm going to try this next time! We tried making these last time without knowing exactly what to do and it was a big fail! It turned out thick and very clumpy. So we just pound it down with a mortar. It helped a little, but wasn't exactly right. I hope it would look good with the sushi :)

[FluffyKitsune09]

thanks so much!!!! i have been dying for a tempura recipe so i can make some awsum sushi:)<3<3<3

[satanslover1]

[chibicheeks78]

[green2850]

[thashaisme]

Thanks a million, I always wanted to know how to do this mixture.

Hi,

I'm Living in Egypt and they don't have the tempura mix. Is there a substitute for it? Can I use normal flour??

Thanks

Great videos

[3zib]

Awesome vid mate!

[mike92777]

Hey! Thanks for the video dude! Awesome!

[rawrkarixx]

Is tempura flour different from regular flour?

[BangItzKay]

how come there's no flakes on this tempura? are there usually flakes? o:

[MsChattyCatherine]

He broke the yolk at the beginning... Lol.

[MsChattyCatherine]

He cracked the yolk... Lol

[mistyaqua]

I can see that someone went to Walmart ;)

[vraymond02]

@mistyaqua haha you know me too well

[thatsabigbitch24]

this is a well made video. totally lgit

[letmelightuptheskyy]

that looks scary! :o

[Manequin01]

wuuoo thanks, this takes a lot of work :O!

[marcuelcajon]

Great Video.

[Jojeeh]

how long does this tempura flaks stay crunchy or how long will this keep? how should one store it?

[Stepanyan21]

Why not olive oil? Should I avoid using olive oil to fry shrimp tempura as well?

[ParkLeeNa]

@Stepanyan21 olive oil will burn and add a bad taste. its also more expensive than the other oils...

[pimpcesslisa]

A guy that knows how to cook..you're perfect!

[youngtifa]

eheheheh.. put the mix through a strainer into another container

[MizzFishy]

What's in tempura flour ? 

[MrUpgraydde]

@MizzFishy Rice flour and baking powder.

[nmwhite0131]

This is a really great video. I found a flat mesh strainer thing in a random cabinet and that really helped with not pouring too much in at once. It also caught all the clumps so it eliminated the step where you poured the batter through the strainer.

[Chickenfish42]

Bless you, sushi man!! Your website is incredible! Thank you so much for doing these videos!

[kasonyaj1]

good video. for the sauces, how do you make them, or do you buy them?

[samantha492003]

i cant wait to try this!!! . i have wondering how you make the flakes for the longest time. i tried it before and it was a disaster, they burned and were clumpy, and just not what i expected. but im gonna try again. thanks to this vid!!!

[carolicious74]

I was about to make rolls today and decided to youtube to get more ideas about different rolls since I was sick of the ones I've been making and came across your videos. These are SO helpful! Thank you! I never could figure out how to get these tempura flakes! Thank you soo much and keep up the good work!

[Vincentsmom27]

yours is the first instructional sushi video that actually instructs! awsome, I am learning a lot from you

[xevious2501]

again really good vid, now how about the sushi roll sauces.

ala kewpie mayo etx

[ksleejerry]

Hey...great instruction video!!! One suggestion to have it flacky. I use a sieve to slowly drain the mix into the oil instead of pouring it in.

cheers

[mememe123123]

is there a certain brand you need for this?

i tried it with some no name tempura batter mix, and it ended up looking like little dropplets of batter thats used to make chicken balls... it really ruined my day, seeing how my rolls were centered around these flakes ahah

[vraymond02]

um not sure how much of a difference it would be. hmm im not exactly sure what you mean by droplets but if its chunky.. use more water. try to pour really slowly the lesser at a time the better. and try not to fill the pot up all the way or they will cling together. hope that helped.

[djmokes]

@mememe123123 Same happened to me... i taught it was because i used canola oil, but i guess not...

[pmndy1]

Thank you. Worked really really well, saved my day after a bad recipie. ^^

[omilkhouseo]

great vid, thanks for making it! im going to make myself some westernized sushi tomorrow ^^

[63872639]

awesome..........

[dedakins]

Great instructional videos! First of all thank you so much. You are saving me a ton of money. Also helping me with one of my New Years Resolutions which was to learn how to make sushi for myself. I live in a small town and was wondering where can I get this tempura flour?

[gswiaczny]

Search some online stores with Japanese food. :)

[gswiaczny]

food supplies*

[thanhhh]

its like a science experiment! so cool. i have to try it.

[koala2610]

i use empty mustard bottle, its the best way i found to put the right amound of batter in the oil and avoid splashs :)

[cadillaccts3]

will normal all-purpose flour work?

[soulfighter82]

if u use normal it would be plain flakes?

[CDmagz]

now we don't have to buy it ready made anymore! Great! cheers love x

[smelliottbobelliott]

thanks for the video. if you pour a big blob in you end up with yummy greasy puffs that can be rolled in sugar and/or cinnamon so they can be salvaged. :) hahaha. i was thinking, could a tortilla be used instead of nori? i am not too fond of a lot of nori taste and would like to invent an alternative. maybe one could make a weave out of vegetables or tortilla mixed with stripes of nori... if ya read this let me know if this just sounds insane XD

[vraymond02]

well what u can do, which i do often at the restaurant, is place a piece of nori on to a sushi mat roller, then place a big piece of plastic wrap on top of the nori, press rice into the shape of the nori, place your ingredients in the middle then remove the nori and roll w/ the plastic wrap :) takes some time to get use to but its the best alternative if you dont like nori

hope that helps

raymond

[vraymond02]

not insane lol might be good, dont know till u try it haha

[VIVnLYNNZORZ]

@smelliottbobelliott Soy Wrappers! They come dry and could be used to make sushi. Luxirare used them to make her special sushi, and this Japanese sushi cone cart in my city offers the wrappers as a choice too.

[takalazee]

@smelliottbobelliott If you make a maki with a tortilla, they call it a Mexican roll, I've seen it on the menu of a few places. Also, if you don't like the nori, they make a substitue for it called soy paper or soy crepe. It comes in different colors, from yellow to pink and green

[jtran65]

Raymond,

Thank you so much for finally posting the video on the tempura flakes!! I did not know that you had to pour this slowly. My tempura flakes always ends up in clumps.

[mc727fly]

Thanks for that video. I've been searching all over the internet for these instructions. Question: How long with these flakes stay crunchy? Can they be prepared the day prior?

[vraymond02]

Best to use the day of, next day might be a little stale but still good just place it into a container or a bowl w/ plastic wrap over it

[katq86]

yay your talking!! lol i like it xx

[zkittys]

Thanks for this video! i have yet to send u the ingredients for my fav sushi ...i havent called the rest. yet... but i loveee ur videos! thanks !

[vicky06y]

you have a very nice voice! lol you should use it more in your videos. thanks for the tutorial! :)

[OhxSnapples]

I love shrimp tempura rolls. (:

There so much oil in the flakes D:

[dafranx]

Good job making Tempura Flakes; you should make a video about Tempura. You should Tempura Fry shrimps, prawns, soft-shell crabs, soft-shell crawfish and soft-shell shrimps.

[charmimu]

wow that was easy! thanks for sharing! all I need now is tiger prawns! =D

[jess2326]

OMG! you are so talking on this vid!!!! yay!!! Ray! I tried this about 15 minutes ago and I did what you said you DON'T want the tempura flakes to look like...ha ha ha!!! I sucked big time!!! but it finally looked decent towards the end of what I had left of the batter and it started to come out...nice and crispy. So this was just a test run for when I make sushi! I still have to send you picks of my sushi making, I promise soon! just everyone digs in too soon...b4 I can get pics. ha ha ha

[SecretLovee]

haha youre actually talking! what makeupaddict said! and for those clumps, cant you just break them apart or no? Nice kitchen by the way! and I like that fish sauce haha!

[nirv420]

[MakeupAddict126]
