Crispy Tempura Batter Recipe for Vegetables, Fish, and Shrimp

Features:
    Cuisine:

    We made this as part of our asian dinner fest last night. We ran into 2 problems. The batter didn't stick well to the ingredients we used, my DH added more flour but it didn't help. The flavor of beer was too strong. I didn't use light beer because we didn't have any. I am not giving any stars because it isn't fair to you if I didn't use the beer you listed in recipe. I appreciate having this recipe to try last night. It is definitely out of the norm for us and added a good dimension to our dinner.
    Made for ZWT6 for the Voracious Vagabonds.
