Shrimp is a particularly delicious and easy-to-cook good ingredient. For people living by the sea, shrimp is also a frequent visitor at the table. Among various methods, my favorites are boiled shrimp and brine shrimp. On the one hand, it is because of their simple method, and on the other hand, because the shrimp cooked in this way takes the shortest time, which can better ensure the meat quality and taste of the shrimp.

The method of brine shrimp is very simple. It does not require many ingredients, just salt and some common spices. The most important thing is to buy good live shrimp.

This time the brine shrimp, at the request of the child's father, did not include pepper, because his tongue was a little broken, and he was afraid of the smell of pepper. "

Tips:
Poetry heart phrase:

1: To make brine shrimp, it is best to buy live shrimp, and don't choose those with very soft skin.

2: If it’s hot like me, just cook it. If it’s a cold dish, pour some of the boiled green onion and ginger in advance to cool it, and then soak the cooked shrimp in it, while covering it with ice, and keep it in the refrigerator before eating. This kind of shrimp has a crisper texture. .

3: The dipping sauce can be prepared according to your own preferences, it can be light soy sauce with vinegar and garlic, it can be sesame oil vinegar, it can be mustard light soy vinegar..., as long as it is what you like.
