Nisshin Tempura Flour Mix "Age-jouzu" (日清 コツのいらない天ぷら粉 揚げ上手) 300g — the name means "no knack required", and Nisshin means it literally: no cold water, no eggs, no special technique. The maker says it fries up crisp and dry, brings out the ingredient's own flavour, and finishes with the flower-like bloom good tempura is judged on — and that it works in oil as shallow as 2 cm. It also stays light and crisp rather than turning soggy once cooled.
About Nisshin Seifun Welna
Nisshin Seifun Welna (日清製粉ウェルナ) is the consumer-foods company of Japan's Nisshin Seifun Group — founded in 1962 as Nisshin Foods and renamed in 2022 — and it holds the No. 1 share of Japan's home-use tempura flour at 59.8% (Intage SRI+, April 2021–March 2024). Alongside the 日清 flours and pre-mixes it makes the Ma-Ma (マ・マー) pasta and Ao no Dokutsu (青の洞窟) pasta-sauce lines. (Note: "Nisshin" 日清製粉 is a separate company from "Nissin" 日清食品, the instant-noodle maker.)
What is tempura flour?
Tempura flour (天ぷら粉) is a pre-blended mix sold specifically for making tempura batter, as distinct from the plain flour a cook would otherwise have to balance themselves.
How to use & enjoy
Tempura batter is the light, crisp coating for deep-fried vegetables and seafood. Beyond individual pieces it makes kakiage — julienned vegetables, often with seafood, bound in a thin batter and fried as a fritter — and tops a tendon, the rice bowl served with a sweet-savoury sauce. Tempura is classically eaten with tentsuyu, a dipping sauce of dashi, soy sauce and mirin, with grated daikon added.
