Why is the crystal shrimp in the hotel white?

because the shrimps selected are not green shrimps, they are red, not the glittering and translucent white. However, it doesn't hinder its smoothness, tenderness, crispness and sweetness. The crystal shrimp is in the hotel, with a little bit on a big plate, which looks high-grade and exquisite, so I don't think it can be done well at home. In fact, hotels have hidden rules. Many ingredients are specially processed, so they will show effects that cannot be achieved at home.

raw material:

shrimp.

ingredients:

ginger, egg white, edible baking soda.

Seasoning:

Salt (1.5 teaspoons for three times, cooking wine, white pepper, starch, broth.

Practice:

1. Raw shrimp

2. Wash the shrimp, use a clean towel, press it several times repeatedly, don't use too much force, and absorb the water.

3. The dried shrimps are salted with salt, white pepper, baking soda, cooking wine and put in the refrigerator for 2 hours.

4. Remove shredded ginger from marinated shrimps, wash and repeat step 2 to absorb water, add egg white, white pepper, salt and starch, and marinate for 1 minutes.

5. put oil in the pan, stir-fry the shrimps at 7% heat, and then change color.

6. Drain the shrimps for later use. Pour out all the oil in the pan. Add the broth, salt and white pepper to thicken them into lotus root paste. Pour the shrimps in and turn them evenly.

baking soda is not necessary, and the tissues with shrimps will be fluffy and crisp.

in the last thickening step, I added a little shrimp oil, which really gilded the lily.

shrimp must be fresh, and the taste is really different. It is best to choose green shrimp.

In fact, only one teaspoon of salt was used for three times, because it was washed off after pickling. .5 teaspoon of the second pickled shrimp and the thickening part respectively. That will do.
