TRADITIONAL JAPANESE RECIPE: To make Tatsutaage, the key ingredient is Katakuriko, the potato starch. The signature look of Tatsutaage is a white coating from Katakuriko. Katakuriko seems more popular than corn starch in Japan.

Tatsutaage is like Karaage, seasoned and deep-fried meat or fish. Just like our Saba Tatsutaage, chicken pieces are marinated in soy sauce, rolled in Katakuriko (potato starch) instead of wheat flour, and deep-fried. Tatsutaage may be a little lighter and crispier than Karaage.
