Tips:
1. Marinating shrimp meat is a delicate process, and this process is usually prepared in advance. Of course, if it is fresh shrimp, it is full of flavor.
2. The overall taste of this dish is quite distinct. There will be various flavors such as sweet, salty, fragrant, and spicy. You can adjust the ingredients appropriately according to your taste habits. Of course, it is for this rich level of taste to have such a matching approach.
3. Western-style cuisine usually requires higher olive oil, just like our Chinese dishes often choose soybean oil, peanut oil, etc. to match different dishes. The olive oil used to marinate the shrimp must be lighter, otherwise the astringency will infiltrate over a long period of time, instead of just staying on the surface like a salad.
