Double Flavor Grilled Dried Shrimp
1.
Shrimp is best to use sea prawns, and preferably live prawns, first wash the prawns.
2.
Boil a pot of hot water, add ginger slices, and cook the shrimp for two minutes.
3.
Drain the cooked shrimp as much as possible, add half a teaspoon of salt, and mix well. If the sea prawn itself has a salty taste, it is not necessary to add salt. Take out half, add appropriate amount of black pepper to the other half, and marinate for ten minutes.
4.
Spread the shrimps flat on the grilling net, put them in the oven, and bake at 120°C for 3 hours, turning them twice in the middle to heat the shrimps evenly.
5.
Pay attention to observation after roasting. If the shrimp tails are a bit flat and the shrimp skin is whitish and wrinkled, pinch it with your fingers to feel firm and elastic. You can also split the shrimp heads. If the shrimp brains are all dry and there is no moisture in the oil, it means they are cooked. It can be eaten after letting cool.
Tips:
1. As long as the shrimps are grilled dry enough, they can be stored at room temperature for many days, without putting them in the refrigerator. Otherwise, it will get damp easily after taking it out of the refrigerator, which will affect the taste.
2. If the taste is not so crisp after being left for two days, you can put it in the microwave for half a minute and then take it out to remove the moisture, and the taste can be restored.
3. A catty of live shrimp is about two to three weights after roasting.
