DRUNKEN SHRIMP



Drunken Shrimp image

Because this dish has only two ingredients, finding the best shrimp is of utmost importance. In Hong Kong, where only live fish is considered fresh, live shrimp are common. Here you may find them at some fishmongers (especially in Chinese neighborhoods) and even in some Western supermarkets. The wine traditionally used for this dish in the south of China is Mei Kuei Lu Chiew and is quite strong and a little sweet; you can find it at many Chinese markets. Shopping hassles aside, this dish is worth trying. Serve it with an assortment of other Chinese dishes or as a starter.

Yield makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 pound medium shrimp, preferably live
1 1/4 cups Mei Kuei Lu Chiew, dry Gewürztraminer, or gin

Steps:

  • If you are using live shrimp, run them under cold water to clean them thoroughly. In any case, leave the shells on. Place the shrimp in a bowl with 1 cup of the wine, cover, and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
  • Heat a wok or deep skillet over high heat, then add the remaining 1/4 cup wine. When the wine is almost boiling, carefully ignite it, then immediately add the shrimp with its marinade. (If you are not comfortable igniting the wine, bring it to a rolling boil.) Cook the shrimp, stirring, until they turn pink, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and serve

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you are using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
  • To devein shrimp, make a shallow incision along the back of the shrimp and remove the dark vein.
  • Shrimp can be cooked in a variety of ways, including boiling, steaming, grilling, frying, and baking.
  • For best results, cook shrimp until they are opaque and firm.
  • Do not overcook shrimp, as this will make them tough and rubbery.
  • Shrimp can be served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as soy sauce, chili sauce, or tartar sauce.
  • Shrimp can also be used in a variety of dishes, such as stir-fries, salads, soups, and pasta dishes.
