Question 1

What does the nori seaweed do in this recipe?

Accepted Answer

Nori seaweed (the type used in sushi) adds a subtle ocean flavour to the vegan "fish." Wrapping the banana blossom or tofu in small strips of nori gives it a more authentic fishy taste. You can also blend nori flakes into the batter or sprinkle them on top for added flavour.

Question 2

What is banana blossom, and where can I find it?

Accepted Answer

Banana blossom is the flower of the banana tree, and it has a flaky texture that resembles fish when cooked. You can usually find canned banana blossom in Asian grocery stores, health food shops, or online retailers. It's becoming more common in supermarkets as well.

Can I bake the "fish" instead of frying it?
