  1. My picky kids ate it so I had to give it 5 stars. The shrimp were crispy and flavorful. I added all the seasonings mentioned to the batter with the addition of a few shakes of Frank's Red Hot sauce. We all enjoyed it and I will make again. Used the leftover batter to fry some onion rings. Yum.
     
  2. I am highly allergic to all seafood, however, I ventured out and tried this recipe for my family. They are in need for some culinary differentiation! I donned gloves and a mask to give this a try. Needless to say, my husband and kids really enjoyed this recipe. Thank you.
     
  3. Very good! Followed recipe exactly and then accidentally dumped the bag of shrimp into the batter and it was watery...I was worried that it would be ruined, but I tossed in some more flour and an egg and they turned out so good.
     
  4. it was by accident i came across this recipe and i dont regret. this was much better then the season packages already prepared over the counter. very nice taste.
     
  5. Coming from the east coast of Canada i love seafood. And these turned out perfectly. Will be trying them again for sure.
