Salt-baked prawns made in cast iron pot

Overview

Boiling, stir-frying, steaming? Are you still cooking prawns in such a mediocre way? Just like your life that repeats itself every day with no new ideas, your recipes are also bland and endless; just like the rules and regulations you have been taught since childhood, you think you have got rid of them, but in fact they are still there. Pan-frying, deep-frying, steaming, boiling, stewing, pork belly must be braised, and sea bass can only be steamed... This is how your kitchen is, and it can only be like this. Dear, you have another choice, try salt baking. Your dining table needs some new tricks, and you also need to master some new skills. Prawns are such a precious ingredient and are definitely worth trying better. The most important thing is that cast iron pots go better with salt baking.
