Hi Ananda,

Thank you for asking! If you can sub in all-purpose flour instead of cake flour, I’d recommend increasing the cornstarch ratio a bit!

Thanks!

In reply to Allison.

Allison, Japanese run restaurants in the States aren’t pure Japanese restaurants. They are focused on American palates, not pure Japan tastes. Shocked that you don’t know that.

Hi Lara,

Thank you for your thoughtful comment and interest in trying this recipe! I understand your concern about ice, but I want to reassure you that this batter is very thin, making it impossible for ice to stick to the ingredients when dipping them as instructed. There’s no risk of ice accidentally falling into the oil when following the steps.
I appreciate you bringing up considerations, though. I will add a brief note to the post about working with hot oil. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.

If they haven’t melted a fire could be started so easily by submerging it into oil.
