There are many ways to make mantis shrimp. In Guangdong, it is usually boiled with salt and pepper. The method of baking is to put the mantis shrimp in the pot directly without adding water, and cover the lid to cook, and The taste of boiled rice is almost the same, the original taste is original, and it tastes like the sweetness of mantis shrimp. It is my favorite way of eating. Of course, the premise is that the mantis shrimp must be fresh! I usually eat it like this, without any seasonings, you can use vinegar and soy sauce for dipping.
