INGREDIENTS

1 lb medium fresh shrimp
1 T Vodka
1 1/2 t Salt
1/8 t White pepper
1 c All-purpose flour
2 t Baking powder
1 c Water, cold
2 c Oil, for deep-frying
6 T Salt, coarse
1/2 t Black peppercorns
2 T Szechuan peppercorns

INSTRUCTIONS

Carefully remove the shells from the shrimp, leaving the tail sections
intact. Devein and wash under cold running water; pat dry with paper
towels.  In a dish or bowl, marinate briefly in a mixture of the
vodka, salt, and pepper while you make the batter.  In a mixing, put
the flour and baking powder; gradually add the cold  water, whisking
until smooth.  In a wok, heat the 2 cup of oil until it reaches 350
degrees F. Add 1  tablespoon of the hot oil to the batter and stir to
combine. Take a  shrimp by the tail and dip it into the batter (do not
dip the tail),  then slide it into the hot oil. Deep-fry all the
shrimp, a few at a  time, until golden brown. This should take about 2
minutes for each  batch. Drain on paper towels, and serve tails up, in
a serving dish,  with the salt/pepper mixture for dipping. Makes 8 to
10 appetizer  servings.  FOR DIPPING:  In a bowl, combine coarse salt
and the peppercorns. In  a dry frying pan over high heat, brown the
salt/pepper mixture. When  browned remove and run the mixture through a
grinder.
