«I make my salt and pepper shrimp with three peppers—black pepper, white pepper and the one that’s really fun, Sichuan pepper,» says Rach. «It makes your lips swell like Angelina Jolie, it makes your tongue tingle, it makes you feel sassy!» Cook the shrimp with the shell on; it gets nice and crispy, so you can eat it or peel it off, whichever you prefer. Rach serves the shrimp alongside noodles flavored with ginger, garlic, soy sauce and sesame oil for a MYOTO (make your own takeout) combo that’s super-simple, super-tasty and super-fast. «I mean, how easy is this meal?» she says. «You can make the whole thing in less than fifteen minutes—it’s crazy.»
