SHRIMP IN SPICY LIME SAUCE
Few people I know have gone food hunting in Cambodia, so I was curious when Deb Winson, a New York-based food stylist, came back with an ecstatic report. ''Everything was so fresh and beautiful, and everything was so simple,'' she said. When I asked her to describe her favorite dish, she told me about a great preparation for shrimp cooked in lime. The ingredients were much as I expected: limes, sugar, salt, chiles and garlic, all common in Southeast Asian cooking. But the technique sounded unusual. The shrimp were not stir-fried, as you might expect, but instead were simmered in a very pungent sauce so that they took on strong flavor and still stayed juicy. This is my version.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the lime juice, sugar and salt. Place oil in a 10- or 12-inch skillet, and turn the heat to high. A minute later, add the garlic and chile flakes and cook the garlic until it just begins to brown. Immediately add the lime juice mixture all at once, and cook until it reduces by half, or even more, 3 to 5 minutes. There should be only about 1/4 cup of liquid in the skillet, and it should be syrupy.
- Add the shrimp, and cook over high heat. The shrimp will give off liquid of their own and begin to turn pink almost immediately. After about 2 minutes, stir contents of pan. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally until all the shrimp are pink, about 4 minutes total. Taste, adjust seasoning, garnish with cilantro and serve with rice.

BUTTERY KIMCHI SHRIMP
Kimchi, a classic Korean dish of fermented vegetables, creates a subtle, funky sauce for sweet shrimp when stirred into melted butter. Some kimchis can be spicier than others, so taste yours before deciding if you want to add heat with red-pepper flakes. A good squeeze of lime juice just before serving gives the whole dish a bright lift and really brings it together, so don't even think about skipping it. Serve with sautéed bok choy or tatsoi on the side.

Steps:
- In a food processor, pulse the kimchi until it resembles a paste. Season the shrimp with kosher salt.
- In a 12-inch skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, ginger and red-pepper flakes, if using, and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add half the shrimp to the pan in one layer and cook undisturbed until they just start turning pink about 1 minute. Flip and cook for about 1 minute more, then remove from the pan and set aside. They may not be fully cooked at this time, and that's O.K. Repeat with remaining shrimp and leave in the pan.
- Add the reserved shrimp back to the pan with any juices that have accumulated. Add the kimchi paste and stir together with the shrimp until everything is well coated and the shrimp is cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove from the heat, squeeze with lime and scatter cilantro on top. Make sure to spoon the residual pan sauce on top and season with flaky salt if desired.

SHRIMP (PINK) SAUCE COPYCAT FROM LINGS / KIMS CHINESE IN MEDFORD
Shrimp sauce (or pink sauce) is a staple in Southern Oregon Chinese restaurants. It is served with (and eaten with) just about everything from Mar Far chicken to Fried Rice. It is especially yummy as a dip for egg rolls or even pork and seeds. This is the closest copycat recipe I have found for this sauce. It is a variation of a recipe printed in our local newspaper in response to a request for the recipe.

HONG KONG TASTY STIR FRIED SHRIMP
A necessary preliminary step is to salt wash the shrimp to firm them up, which gives them a wonderful crunchy texture. Then it is necessary to coat them with a velvet-like egg white and cornstarch mixture; this protects the delicate shrimp meat from the oil and prevents overcooking. Once those steps are done, this dish takes but minutes to cook. Always buy the freshest shrimp possible.

Steps:
- To clean the shrimp. Fill a large bowl of cold water, add 1 tablespoon of salt, and gently wash the shrimp in the salt water. Drain and repeat the process, using fresh salted water. Then rinse the shrimp under cold running water, drain, and blot dry with paper towel.
- Combine the egg white, cornstarch and salt together. Coat the shrimp with the coating ingredients in a medium sized bowl. Mix well and refrigerate for about 20 minutes.
- Heat a wok or large skillet until it is hot; add the oil. When the oil is just warm, quickly add the shrimp, stir to separate, and turn off the heat. Allow the shrimp to sit in the warm oil for about 2 minutes. Drain in a colander set inside a stainless steel bowl, reserving the oil.
- Reheat the wok, return 1 tablespoon of the drained oil and when it is hot, add the ginger and scallions and stir fry for 30 seconds. Then add the rice wine, vinegar, salt and the drained shrimp. Stir fry for 1 minute, turn out onto a serving platter and serve immediately. Serves 4-6.
- NOTE: Velveting-Unique to Chinese cuisine, this technique gives a particularly delicious texture to meat and seafood. Heat the oil to moderately hot or just until bubbles gently form over the surface of a test piece of meat. Add the meat and stir carefully just to separate the pieces. Turn the heat off and allow the meat to sit in the oil as long as the recipe specifies. Turn the meat into a colander set aside a stainless steel bowl and drain well.
