Love the method and the result, looks amazing and I will be trying it next week.
I only have 1 critique, you left in the veins. The black vein running along it's inner belly is basically it's digestion tract. It removes fairly nicely with a small cut, much like along the back, and pulling it out.
That gets rid of the gritty texture you can get with uncleaned shrimp.
Takes any shrimp from an 8/10 to a 10/10 experience.

I d like to add a detail about preparing the tail. It s common to slice the tip off of the tail and scrape the tail to squeeze out the water. It s not strictly necessary, but it s done for a few reasons. Aesthetics, avoiding unnecessary popping caused by the water in the hot oil, and to help make sure that it comes out crispy. Some people eat the tail, but if it s not crispy, it s basically indelible.

Chef John, when deep frying small quantities like this, what do you do with all that leftover oil?
That is the reason I no longer have the deep frier. I catch my own fish but only cook 4 smaller fillets for my wife and I so I use my cast iron pan but would rather use a deep frier.

What is the reason for potato starch rather than cornstarch? I've read that cornstarch will come out crispier than potato starch when frying - is that wrong?

Tempura is actually of Portuguese origin. It was the Portuguese who introduced tempura into Japan. Before that time battered food was unheard of in Japan.

You are the menorah of your shrimp tempura. Speaking of lighting a fire, those spicy chicken rice krispie treats I made last week taste great baked

I use to get fried shrimp with vegetables at this Thai place. I love the assortment.
Great job
