Shrimp processing
Choose really fresh shrimp, wash thoroughly with water, then use scissors to cut off the antennae and the sharp tip of the shrimp. With large shrimp, you should proceed to withdraw only to clean and hygienic shrimp. Then, put the shrimp in a bowl with a little salt and shake well, leave for about 10 minutes to eliminate the fishy smell of the shrimp. Spices for roasting shrimp Only marinate shrimp with salt, absolutely do not use fish sauce to roast shrimp In addition to salt, sugar, and main noodles, dried onions and green onions are two spices that need to be prepared to roast shrimp. Dried onions are both marinated and fragrant before roasting to help the shrimp smell better. Meanwhile, chopped scallions are added last before roasting to help make the color beautiful and look more attractive. When roasting shrimp, absolutely do not use fish sauce because they both cause the shrimp to release a lot of water and affect the sweetness of the shrimp. In addition, you need to prepare more lemon leaves to add at the end. For beautiful red shrimp Hang water (distilled sugar water) will help red shrimp look beautiful The trick here is that you use water. Put the pan on the stove, add 1 tablespoon of sugar and heat until the sugar dissolves and turns yellow, then add 2 tablespoons of hot water, stir, bring to a boil, then turn off the heat. When the roasted shrimp has turned pink, you taste the seasoning and add this cup of water. You should cook the water a little thick to avoid too much water when put in the pot of roasted shrimp. So shrimp is both easy to color and quick to dry. Note that because this product is already available, you do not need to add sugar even when marinating the shrimp. Let the shrimp dry Roasted shrimp still have water secreted from the inside of the shrimp, making them wet, losing their crispiness and especially being very fishy. Therefore, to meet the requirements of roasting shrimp, the shrimp must be dry, and there is no water secreted in the shrimp body. The secret to doing this is that when marinating shrimp, you only marinate with salt, not fish sauce, which will make shrimp more watery. After marinating the shrimp, you put it in a pot and heat it up. When cooked, the shrimp will be a lot of water, you need to boil the water and then pour the shrimp out on a plate. This method helps the shrimp to drain the water and become dry, not fishy. Then fry the onions until fragrant and then fry the shrimp as usual. Continue to stir the shrimp over medium heat to dry the shrimp. During this stage and throughout the roasting process later, you should open the lid of the pot to quickly drain the water and create the necessary dryness. Pay attention to the fire when roasting shrimp Initially, when the shrimp is full of water, you need to heat it up very high to quickly drain the water. Then you bring the fire to a moderate level. If the fire is too high, the shrimp will easily burn, but if the fire is too low, the shrimp will become soft and lose the necessary crispness. Let the roasted shrimp smell attractive Sprinkle with lemon leaves and finely chopped scallions when the stove is turned off to help the shrimp smell better Frying the onion and adding the shrimp, stirring the shrimp over the heat until the shrimp are completely drained are important steps to ensure that the shrimp are roasted properly. But for shrimp to smell attractive, the secret for you is to add finely chopped lemon leaves. You may be surprised, but not only chicken, roasted shrimp also go well with the passionate aroma of lemon leaves. Note that you should only add the lemon leaves last and turn off the heat, so that the lemon leaves will smell good and not be bitter. KN (th)
