Shrimp balls are delicious made from fresh shrimps. There are many ready-made shrimp balls and fish balls in supermarkets. The prices are still cheap, but think about it, there are many additives. I rarely buy those to eat. If you have time, you can make it yourself. Making shrimp balls by yourself can be as smooth as the Q-bomb. It only takes one more operation to achieve it. Hurry up and look down. If you learn to make it for your family, you don’t have to buy it again.
Today's shrimp ball soup I added silk tofu, which is very tender and melts in the mouth. It goes perfectly with shrimp balls. The child drank three bowls of the prepared tofu and shrimp ball soup, and said it was delicious. My parents also like it very much. It is light and not greasy but it is delicious, which suits their appetites.

Shrimp Ball Tofu Soup

1. Peel off the shells of the prawns and remove the heads. Don't toss the shrimp head, save it for deep-fried into shrimp sauce, noodles or stir-fry are delicious. The shrimp is cut open from the back, the shrimp thread is removed, and then cleaned and set aside.

2. One part of the shrimp is chopped into puree, and the other third is cut into small pieces. I think there are some grains that taste better. If it's a baby, just muddy it all up. Finely chop ginger and mince green onions.

3. Put the shrimp paste, meat paste, and chopped green onion and ginger into a basin, add a small amount of salt and pepper, and stir well.

4. Add the egg whites of an egg and mix well again. This time it will be a little runny, but it doesn't matter.

5. The next step is to start the most critical step. Grab some meat mud with your hands, and then fall into the pot. Repeat this process until the meat mud in the pot becomes very viscous and you will feel resistance when you grab it. Let it last for seven or eight minutes.

6. Boil the soup pot with water, add some shredded ginger and cook for a while, start to squeeze the balls, turn the heat to a minimum, and keep the water slightly boiling. Wet the left hand with water, then grab some mud, squeeze it out from the tiger’s mouth, take a spoon in the right hand, and gently scrape it down, which is a ball, put it into the soup, and repeat this process until the meatballs are all done Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes.

7. A box of silk tofu, which is soft tofu. Tear off the surface, buckle upside down on a plate, and cut into pieces with a knife.

8. Add the cut soft tofu to the soup,

9. Continue to cook for another 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

10. Finally, add chopped coriander, and then add a few drops of sesame oil. The refreshing, non-greasy and delicious shrimp ball tofu soup is ready, and it is only after drinking three bowls.
