Oven-Fried Shrimp

Kewpie is the ultimate secret ingredient to creating a perfect battered-and-fried crunch without a deep fryer. In this recipe for mayo-and-panko-coated shrimp, Kewpie does two things: First, it replaces the usual egg dip since it has so much yolk. Second, as the mayonnaise heats up in the oven, so does the oil in it, which ends up frying the shrimp and giving the panko crust an irresistible crunch. The result is a snack that’s too easy to pop one after another.
