For extra crispy shrimp, consider using a mixture of all-purpose flour and cornstarch (1.5 cups flour and 0.5 cup cornstarch). Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper in both the flour mixture and the sauce to control the spice level. Start with less and add more to taste. Ensure the oil temperature remains consistent throughout the frying process for even cooking. Serve immediately after coating with sauce to maintain the shrimp's crispiness.
