I have no doubt many deep fried foods are delicious! I'm glad your
shrimp turned out so well. IMHO, deep frying is messy. And there's
always leftover (perfectly re-usable) oil. Since I'm not apt to deep
fry again for another year, it's likely to be a waste of good oil. Or a
waste of refrigerator space, something saved "just in case" I decide to
deep fry something. Not likely. But hey, that's just me.
