Even if a maple leaf did have some discernable flavor, after a year soaking in salt water, it's just going to taste like salt. Assuming you can taste anything through the batter.<br /><br />And frying it for "over 20 minutes"? Until crisp? Well that's just silly. People fry chicken pieces for four minutes and they're cooked through being crispy on the outside, a 1mm thick leaf covered in a thin batter isn't going to take 20 minutes!<br /><br />You can trust my rant, I'm American. I know fried things.<br /><br />AmandaWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08235321835081066916noreply@blogger.com
