About Tempura fried sage leaves

Tempura Fried Sage Leaves are a delicate snack or garnish originating from Japanese cuisine, where light, crispy tempura batter is traditionally used to enhance various ingredients. In this dish, fresh sage leaves are coated in a simple tempura batter made of flour, water, and sometimes egg, then quickly fried to golden perfection. Sage, an aromatic herb, provides earthy and slightly peppery notes, complementing the airy crispness of the tempura. While sage is rich in antioxidants and contributes to anti-inflammatory benefits, the frying process adds fat and calories, making this a treat best enjoyed in moderation. Often served with a pinch of sea salt or a dipping sauce, Tempura Fried Sage Leaves bring an herbaceous and satisfying crunch to the table, blending culinary artistry with herbal goodness.
