Equipment We Used to Make This Recipe

Notes

Pasta: We like linguine for this recipe, but spaghetti or even fettuccine will work as well.

Shrimp: We use large or extra large shrimp for this recipe.  You can either shell them yourselves, or some seafood departments in your grocery store offer them already shelled.

Soy Sauce: We HIGHLY recommend low sodium soy sauce.  You can always add extra salt if you think it the sauce needs it.
