You could put the shortcuts on the desktop or taskbar, and launch them from there without ever opening the Start interface. Since the Windows 11 Start Menu is so limited, one has to wonder why it should be used at all. Ultimately, what you get right now is a launcher with 18 shortcuts, the option to scroll to display more, an option to display the all apps listing, and a short listing of recently used programs/files and new applications, which you may expand as well. You are left with empty space that has no function whatsoever. While you may hide all recommendations or reduce the number of pinned items below 13 or 7 to free up rows, doing so does not make room for other content in the Start Menu.
The Pinned and Recommended areas of the Start Menu have fixed sizes. Applications can still be added to the interface by right-clicking on them in Explorer or elsewhere and selecting the pin to start option. What you can do, is use drag & drop to move pinned icons in the Start Menu around, or use right-click operations to remove pinned items. Different tile sizes are not supported anymore either, and you cannot expand the Start Menu's size anymore. The option to display the all apps listing and the pinned items on the Start Menu at the same time is gone as well. Groups, which you could use to organize Start Menu shortcuts, are gone.

The default Windows 11 Start Menu displays a search at the top, 18 pinned tiles above the fold, more when you scroll, and recommendations below that.
START11 BRINGS START MENU TO WINDOWS WINDOWS 10
The Live Tiles of Windows 10 are gone, but that is just one of the many features that Microsoft removed. In fact, one of the main characteristics of the start menu is the removal of features.
Windows 11's start menu comes with just a single new feature: a short list of recently opened files and installed apps.
