What it is

Tempura crunch is a crispy coating made from a batter of flour, water, and sometimes egg. It is deep-fried until golden brown and crunchy, creating a light and airy texture.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add tempura crunch to provide a satisfying crispy texture to foods. It is most commonly found in Japanese cuisine, particularly in sushi rolls, as well as in fried seafood and vegetables.

Health notes

Tempura crunch itself is not typically regulated as a food additive. Its primary components are common food ingredients like flour and water. The health implications are generally related to the fat content from frying and the carbohydrate content from the flour. Regulatory bodies like the FDA have not specifically evaluated tempura crunch as a distinct ingredient.

Allergen info

Tempura crunch is often made with wheat flour, which contains gluten. If egg is used in the batter, it is also a major allergen.
