Tips:
1. The basic treatment of Jiwei prawns is to remove the shrimp thread from the second and third section of the back of the shrimp with a toothpick after peeling.
2. The bamboo shoots must be blanched in cold water, which can effectively remove the peculiar smell of the bamboo shoots; of course, water chestnuts can also be added to increase the taste.
3. Cut the ginger into small pieces and soak it with water, then put the ginger water into the shrimp paste. This way, the ginger water will not only remove the fishy smell, but also keep the shrimp paste delicate.
4. Put the mashed shrimp in a bowl, add egg white, salt, pepper and other seasonings, stir in the same direction.
5. Add some oil to the bowl to coat the surface of the spoon with oil, so that the treated shrimp pellets can be easily put into the water.
6. Squeeze the muddy shrimp out of the tiger's mouth with the left hand and scoop it out with a spoon with the right hand. If the surface of the shrimp is not smooth, slide it with the thumb of the left hand several times.
7. The shrimp balls must be in a pot under cold water, so that the shrimp balls can keep their shape and not scattered. Set the shape first; then boil them on low heat until they are cooked.
8. Add tomato paste, sugar, salt, white vinegar and appropriate amount of water to a small amount of oil to make a thick juice, so that not only the tomato paste tastes more mellow, but also is more conducive to the absorption of lycopene.
9. Green beans will keep vegetables green after being blanched in water with a proper amount of oil and salt. Other green vegetables can also be used: such as broccoli, cucumbers and so on.
10. It's hot. I use water to slip. The shape is not smooth. If I eat it myself and want to use less oil, I don't care. If it is a banquet, it is easier to shape and look more beautiful after the shrimp balls are oiled.
