Batter for Deep Frying

By Tingrin3

Piper Lee's Note:
This batter is awesome for deep frying anything! Onion rings, mushrooms, zucchini spears, fish, chicken, shrimp, etc. It is light and thin so you can actually still taste the food you deep fried. This recipe doesn't seem like it would make a lot but it's so thin that it really covers a lot of food.
