This is truly in season right now! The slightly bitter taste is something you crave at least once a year, a true taste of home! Let's enjoy seasonal foods! Nowadays, ingredients are available year-round regardless of their season. Fuki no Tou is the first taste of spring. I hope you enjoy the flavor of Fuki no Tou, which has stored up lots of nutrients and is now sprouting.

Ingredients

Serves about 4 servings
  1. About 7 small Fuki no Tou (butterbur buds)
  2. All-purpose flour (for dusting)
  3. Tempura batter mix
  4. Water
  5. Vegetable oil
  6. Salt, to taste

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Remove the leaves from the Fuki no Tou one by one and wash away any dirt or debris. Lightly dust with all-purpose flour. Prepare the tempura batter.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, add water and tempura batter mix, and lightly mix. It should be smooth enough to fall off a spoon easily. Heat oil in a deep fryer or pot.

  3. 3

    Once the oil reaches about 340°F (170°C), dip the Fuki no Tou in the batter and fry. I fry them one by one, even if it's a bit tedious. They cook quickly because they are thin.

  4. 4

    To preserve the color of the Fuki no Tou, fry them until they are crispy and golden. Drain on a paper towel-lined tray. Sprinkle with salt while hot.

  5. 5

    Serve on a plate and enjoy! It's best eaten hot, but it's still delicious when cooled!
