Tapioca Starch is a coarse, granular starch used as a frying coating, the starch behind Taiwanese fried chicken such as 鹹酥雞 popcorn chicken and 雞排 chicken cutlets. Best for: Fried chicken menus, Taiwanese snack stalls, kitchens making tapioca pearls from scratch. Why operators choose this: The coarse granules sit proud of the surface instead of forming a smooth batter, producing the bubbled, craggy crust that reads as Taiwanese fried chicken rather than a Western cornflour coating. Also used as a thickener for sauces and soups, and as the base starch for making tapioca pearls and taro balls. Method of Application: Marinate the chicken, then drain. Dredge each piece in the starch. Rest 5 to 7 minutes before frying. This lets the coating hydrate and grip so it does not fall off in the oil. Fry until golden, then flash fry a second time hotter for extra crispness. Made In Taiwan Show more
