Jade Shrimp

Overview

If there was a dish that could use ordinary ingredients in a different way, wouldn't life be filled with endless fun? In fact, many times we always have the same dishes in our lives, and everyone seems to be used to those ordinary dishes and ordinary methods, but occasionally, if we change the angle, the dishes cooked will make us shine. The spinach is still the original spinach, and the shrimp is still the original shrimp, but the changed cooking method has transformed the spinach into a cutie in the eyes. You can refuse to change, but you can't destroy your desire to pursue beauty. They are all ordinary ingredients that cannot be more ordinary, but they always taste different. Green spinach paired with fresh shrimps, the ordinary reveals the extraordinary, always allowing diners to feel the tranquil beauty and taste of the original taste of the food. Life is like this. You can accept its ordinaryness but not mediocrity. Just like this emerald shrimp, it also has its own uniqueness.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Prepare the raw materials in advance: You can buy ready-made shrimps directly, which can save time. Since Cai Caiwu always prepares shrimps, I peeled them by myself

   

2. 2 Pick off the yellow leaves and roots of the spinach and wash it in clean water. Because spinach is not a seasonal vegetable, it is inevitable that there will be residues of pesticides and fertilizers, so it is best to soak it in a vegetable cleaning agent or soak it in baking soda water for a few minutes to remove the residue

   

3. 3 Remove heads, peel and clean the shrimps

   

4. 4 Use a knife to slit the back of the shrimp with the shells removed and take out the shrimp thread: This step cannot be omitted, otherwise everyone will not be happy eating

   

5. 5 Clean the deveined shrimps and set aside

   

6. 6 Pour water into the pot and bring to a boil. Put the cleaned spinach into the boiling water and blanch it for 2-3 minutes. Don’t blanch the spinach for too long to avoid it being overripe and turning yellow

   

7. 7 Quickly soak the blanched spinach in ice water: Put the blanched spinach in ice water to make it more green

   

8. 8 Then blanch the shrimps in boiling water

   

9. 9 Remove the blanched shrimps and drain them

   

10. 10 Mix olive oil, scallion oil, cooked sesame seeds and appropriate amount of salt to form a juice. Add the cooked shrimps into the juice, mix well and remove

    

11. 11 Then put the spinach and cooked white sesame seeds into the juice and stir evenly: If you find that the juice is too light, you can add some salt
