Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound seafood or fish (in chunks; whole shrimp or oysters are perfect)
1 quart vegetable oil
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup cornstarch
3/4 cup rice flour (or all-purpose flour )
1 large egg yolk
1 cup sparkling water (ice cold)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Season the seafood with salt and set it aside.
  • Lay out a paper towel under a rack to place the fried seafood on.
  • Heat the oil to 370 F over medium to medium-high heat in a deep fryer or a deep, heavy pot. If possible, attach the thermometer to the side.
  • Mix the baking soda, 1/8 teaspoon of salt, cornstarch, and rice flour or all-purpose flour in a bowl until they are fully incorporated.
  • Only when the oil is hot, whisk the egg yolk and the sparkling water together.
  • Pour the egg yolk mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients, mixing well. The consistency of the batter should be like melted ice cream.
  • Rapidly dip the seafood into the thin batter, shake it off a bit, and drop it into the oil. Do this in batches so the oil temperature does not drop too far. Do not crowd the pot.
  • Fry the seafood for 2 to 4 minutes, depending on the size. When you hear the roiling, popping, and sizzling subsiding, remove the seafood immediately.
  • Once the seafood is out of the oil, lay it on the rack to drain.
  • Check the oil temperature between batches. Fry subsequent batches.
  • Serve immediately with dipping sauce and enjoy.

Black Squid Ink Tempura Fish and Chips image

The fish and chips was inspired by a dish I do at Scopa, my restaurant in Venice. Using the squid ink in the batter creates a double flavor of the sea.
