Yes Chef! II Karen. April 5 2011

Mark Baumann

Remember the first exciting installment when award winning chef Mark Baumann challenged Karen's culinary skills?

Lets refresh your memory. Mark, owner of Baumanns Brasserie in Coggeshall, shared two recipes - each including a technique Karen had never encountered until this day in history. And the mission Karen chose to accept? Tempura.

Tempting tempura

Vegetable pieces, in this case cauliflower, are coated in a smooth batter and deep-fried until golden brown. The result: light, flavoursome florets of delight. A simple technique, great for drawing a novice deeper into cooking with confidence. And, the secret to the featherweight batter? Well, it's a whisk but one worth taking... read Mark's cauliflower tempura recipe to uncover the secret ingredient.
