As I mentioned in
my previous entry, I made Japanese deep fried chicken for dinner last Saturday. In Japan, deep fried chicken is called "kara-age" or "wafu kara-age." Kara-age in Japan usually tastes different from regular deep fried chicken in the U.S. It's crispy, juicy and savory. Fresh chicken thighs are usually marinated in some seasoning including soy sauce, garlic, and etc. Then, those are lightly coated with potato starch, which is called katakuriko (片栗粉) in Japanese. By using potato starch, you can make nice and crispy kara-age. :) Kara-age is one of my favorite Japanese foods, and I think it is also loved by everyone regardless of race. If you have never tried Japanese deep fried chickens, you really should try them, and I think you will definitely fall in love with them. :) You can find kara-age at most
authentic Japanese restaurants, and you can also cook kara-age at home. Today, I'm going to share how to cook kara age with you.
