Salt And Pepper Shrimp - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon crushed black peppercorns
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 pinch Chinese five spice powder
6 ounces ice-cold seltzer water
oil (for frying)
1 lb cleaned shrimp

Preparation

In a large bowl, whisk the flour with the cornstarch, salt, peppercorns and five-spice powder.
Lightly whisk in the seltzer.
Do not overmix- the batter should be a little lumpy and add shrimp.
Allow to rest for 10 minutes.
Heat the vegetable oil to 375\u00b0.
Fry shrimp until deep golden, about 2 minutes.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer to rack or paper towels.
