Ginger Tempura (Shoga No Tempura)
"Simple and unusual. Ginger acts as an appetizer, freshens the palate, ans also warms the body. Good as an hors d'oeuvre or between the courses of as heavy meal, or served with pumpkin or sweet potato tempura. It would also make an amazing garnish on some dishes.

<p>This site has gotten so horribly bad over the past couple of years, I have stopped using it to manage my recipes and have gone over to using another one, which I have been forbidden to mention on Food.com. It's no secret that there are competitors; send me a message if you are in the same boat and would like to know. For now, I only frequent a few of the forums and that's it. The Titanic has sailed!</p>
