Steps

1

Peel one layer of the outer skin from the butterbur sprouts, cut off the browned part at the base, soak in water, wash thoroughly, and drain well.
2

Spread the leaves open so the buds inside are visible, then lightly press down from above with a knife to flatten.
3

Mix the tempura batter according to the package instructions, coat the entire butterbur sprout, and fry in oil at 355°F (180°C) with the buds facing down for about 1.5 minutes.
4

Turn them over and fry until crispy, then drain the oil well to finish!
5

With salt, you can enjoy the unique bitterness. If you don't like bitterness, try eating them with miso for a milder taste. Both are delicious, so choose your favorite!
