Description
Fritto misto — small pieces of seafood, vegetables, and sometimes meat dipped in a light batter or simply dusted with flour, fried until golden — is the Italian expression of the principle that correctly fried food is not oily. The keys: dry ingredients, hot oil at the correct temperature, small batches, and immediate service. Hazan's Italian fry is lighter than French beignet batter and less complicated than Japanese tempura — flour-only for delicate ingredients, egg-and-breadcrumb (panatura) for more substantial pieces.
