What Do You Need for Salt and Pepper Shrimp?
Peppercorns! Outside of traditional peppercorns, the Sichuan peppercorns give this Air Fried Shrimp such an amazing spice profile. They’re different from regular peppercorns. They’re just the right amount of spice but more importantly, they make your tongue slightly numb and tingly which is a lot of fun. If you don’t have those, try using regular ground pepper and see if you like the recipe. If you do, you can get Sichuan peppercorns for a change.
Can I Make This With Cornstarch?
I will tell you I tried these with cornstarch and they really weren’t as good as with rice flour. So I’d take the time to get rice flour for this shrimp recipe. Once you have it, you can use rice flour to make other breaded air fryer recipes as well, and you only use a small amount, so it will last awhile.
