TEMPURA BATTER
I found this recipe on a cornstarch box in 1982 and what a great recipe. It is not only easy, but saves money not having to buy it ready made. I use it for cut up vegetables, fish and onion rings.

Steps:
- In a large bowl of cold water, soak the onions for 10 to 15 minutes. Let drain on paper towels.
- Meanwhile, in a large, deep pot or skillet, heat 2 inches of oil over medium-high heat until it registers 360F on a deep-fry thermometer.
- Fill a large bowl halfway with ice. In a separate, medium bowl, whisk the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Add the 1 1/4 cups ice water and stir, just until a batter forms. (The batter will be thin, with small lumps and bubbles.) Place the batter bowl inside the bowl of ice to keep cold.
- Using tongs, coat the onion rings with the batter, letting the excess drip off. Working in batches, drop the rings into the oil and fry until light golden, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Using the tongs, transfer the rings to paper towels to drain; return the oil to 360F between batches.
- Serve with the ketchup and ranch dressing.

Tips:
- Use cold beer or sparkling water to make the tempura batter. This will help the batter to be light and crispy.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the batter tough.
- Make sure the oil is hot enough before frying the onion rings. The oil should be at least 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the onion rings. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and the onion rings will not cook evenly.
- Drain the onion rings on paper towels before serving. This will help to remove excess oil.
