Supplement any shortage of dietary fiber with this healthy and tasty snack. These are deep-fried renkon (lotus root) chips that are seasoned with karashi (Japanese mustard).
It features spicy umami and the punch of karashi. Only one side of the sliced renkon chips is battered, so they are not as greasy as potato chips.
Besides the fiber, renkon is rich in vitamin C, potassium, and a polyphenol called tannin. Its distinctive crunchy texture is also worth trying.
Renkon chips are also ideal for a treat to eat whilst drinking alcohol; try this product at a remote drinking party.
