Questions for the kitchen#

Ask how the coating and sauce are made and which tofu product is used. “Crispy” is a menu description, not a fixed batter formula or a nutritional measurement.

Using this guide#

The questions are editorial suggestions. A dictionary gloss explains wording; it does not verify a restaurant’s recipe, certify dietary suitability or establish a historical origin. State the ingredients you need excluded and ask the kitchen to confirm the particular dish.
