Best Fried Shrimp at the Grocery Store (Now with Shrimp Tempura, Too)

When it comes to the best fried shrimp, I consider myself a bit of an expert. See, I grew up in Northeast Florida, where you can head to the docks and get shrimp that was battered and fried just moments after it came off a trawler. (Oh, how I miss you, Singleton’s!) Frozen fried shrimp from the grocery store is unlikely to approximate the crustaceans you’d eat at a picnic table outside a shrimp shack in the dense Florida humidity, but it shouldn’t be bad either.
