Definitely restaurant quality. One of the best I've tried. The hot sauce makes it. The batter is light and very crisp. A keeper.

I took the advice of other reviewers and halved the salt in the recipe. The results were delicious- the batter was nice and crispy and adhered to the shrimp really well.

Do recipe authors on this site ever correct mistakes or apologize for them? Seems to me they would at least review their own reviews.

Someone recommended this recipe to me and I loved it except--I had to make this twice. The first time I made it I automatically decreased the salt 1 T. as I could see that it had an insane amount of salt to begin with; still too much and I increased the hot sauce 1/4 cup. Also there was waaay too much left over batter and flour mixture (I hate to waste. The second time I made it I only used 1 tsp. of salt and cut everything in half except the hot sauce and the shrimp. I used 3/4 cup of the hot sauce(according to our taste. Also I used half canola oil and half peanut oil (peanut oil is very expensive around here. I found no extreme difference in the taste. It came out much better. I hope FN test cooks will review this recipe and revise it as food ain't cheap these days and most people can't afford to throw it away. Thanks for "listening". :o

This shrimp is amazing! I have made it 3 or 4 times! The salt should be cut in half. I would avise to cut your dry ingredients in half so it all doesn't get wet at once! The results are well worth the mess! I sprinkle flour on a platter and stage the battered pieces there until I fill it up. It gives the batter time to set up a bit before frying. I think it improves the results. I use the same method for chicken wings. The batter sticks better.

I agree with everyone who has reviewed this dish. Great recipe but too much salt...I always tell myself I will read the reviews before making the recipe but always get excited and don't read them until after I am done. Love the spin with the hot sauce. Will have to cut the salt in half if not more... Can't wait to try it again

The shrimp were awesome and will make them again, but have to adjust the salt amount. They were too salty for me....I think next time I will just salt them once I am done cooking them....otherwise YUMMERS!!!

This is the very best shrimp recipe I have ever had. The seasoning is perfect and the shrimp comes out golden brown. My entire family loved it.

The recipe was easy to make. However, I found that 3 tablespoons of salt was way too much. I could only stand to eat a few because they were just too salty. (I hate to waste food & money. I used Crystal hot sauce which contains salt, so perhaps that added to the problem. Also Crystal was not hot enough. If you like it spicy, I would add some cayenne or use a hotter hot sauce. I would definitely make again with slight modifications.
