I've got some chicken thighs in the ol' freezer, I should thaw them out and make my own karaage.
I wonder if they left out the preferred breading method for the sake of time - I learned to use potato starch, myself.

Flour actually makes it a bit more chewy due to the gluten, but this is a good thing imo

The very first time I tried to make it, I had 2 crucial ingredients wrong: breast instead of thigh, and I had to resort to stock chicken breader instead of potato starch (I scoured multiple supermarkets, including Asian groceries, and the closest I could find was sweet potato starch until I went to Whole Foods). I was told that it was kind of like a slightly different-tasting Chick-fil-a nugget kind of thing, but that didn't sit right.

I might try corn starch for a few pieces in order to see how that contrasts against the potato starch.
