572. Chapter 569 Fried Shrimp Chips


Remove the heads and shells, leaving only the intact shrimp meat. Chop the shrimp meat into fine pieces together with the ginger slices. Then mix it with salt, sugar, and tapioca flour to form a dough that is not sticky and has a certain hardness. Divide into One long strip of uniform thickness.

Put the ingredients into a pot and cook until thoroughly cooked. Take them out of the pot and cool them with cold water. After cooling completely, place them in a basket and air-dry them thoroughly.

If it is an ordinary autumn day, the weather is cool and dry, the ventilation is good, and the drying time only takes one night. However, the autumn rain continues, and Xia Mingyue wants to eat this kind of food full of childhood memories earlier. The shrimp crackers were simply roasted at a low temperature in order to remove the moisture from the shrimp crackers as quickly as possible.

In the early morning of the next day, when the strips are hard to the touch, they can be sliced.

This step is a test of knife skills. If it is too thin, the shrimp crackers will be easily crushed when stored. If it is too thick, the shrimp crackers will be undercooked and unable to expand when fried. Therefore, it is necessary to The shrimp slices must be cut into even thicknesses.

Moreover, the long strips have a certain hardness at this time, and there are certain requirements for the sharpness of the kitchen knife, which increases the difficulty of slicing.

Fortunately, the kitchen knife in Xia Mingyue's hand was bought specially for her by Lu Qiyan before. Not only is it thick in texture, it is also extremely easy to sharpen. There is no need to polish it carefully on the whetstone, and it can be used casually on the coarse porcelain basin. Or if you rub it twice on the bottom of the bowl, the edge of the knife will be very sharp.

This was the case for Xia Mingyue at this time. After just rubbing it, the kitchen knife became very easy to use, which helped Xia Mingyue save a lot of energy.

Xia Mingyue quickly cut several strips into evenly thick slices. Next, these slices needed to be fully dried until the shrimp slices were completely dry.

In this step, Xia Mingyue also used baking to shorten the time, using only the oven to completely dry and roast all the shrimp slices.

The dried shrimp chips can be completely packed up and stored in a cool, dry place for a long time.

But Xia Mingyue felt that this step was of little use to her, because now she was going to start frying shrimp crackers, lots and lots of them.

Put enough oil in the pot. When the oil is hot enough, put all the shrimp crackers to be fried into the pot. No other action is needed. The originally thin and small shrimp crackers will be wrapped in the high-temperature oil. It made a sizzling sound, and then its body shape also changed dramatically.

The small shrimp chips begin to expand, become larger and thicker. When the shrimp chips are completely expanded and completely floating on the oil, exuding bursts of aroma, fish out the fried shrimp chips with a fishnet. Take it out, drain the oil, let it dry for a while, and eat directly.

The round shrimp crackers are now fried into a flower-like shape, with an irregular appearance and a full fragrance. Take a bite when you bring it to your mouth. The shrimp is extremely fragrant. Full of flavor, salty and delicious, delicious on earth!

The crunching sound adds a bit of the wonderful taste of shrimp crackers. Pair it with some tea, chew it up, and drink some water to moisten it...

Can't enjoy it anymore!

Xia Mingyue felt full of satisfaction after eating the shrimp crackers she remembered from her childhood. The taste of the shrimp crackers at this time was actually better than what she remembered, which made Xia Mingyue extremely happy, so she went crazy After two days, I slightly slowed down my eating of shrimp crackers.

But for other people, instead of slowing down, they are eating more shrimp crackers more and more.

Take a few tablets before eating, a few tablets after eating, a few tablets before going to bed, and a few tablets after getting up in the morning...

Even Fan Jinglan almost ate the shrimp crackers as a dinner, and did not intend to eat anything else besides the shrimp crackers.

“Will Mrs. Fan’s behavior be bad for her health?” Zhuang Cui couldn’t stand it and reminded her kindly.

"Why did Mrs. Zhuang say that?" Fan Jinglan was puzzled.

“Although these shrimp crackers are delicious, they are just snacks and not a serious meal. If you only eat shrimp crackers without eating, it will be bad for your health.”

Zhuang Cui She said it seriously, but Fan Jinglan scratched her ears in confusion, "But...are these shrimps eaten during meals?"

"Yes."

"Is cassava also edible?" "Yes."

"I'm craving for some fried food, right? No problem?”

“That’s right...”

"Since shrimps can be eaten, tapioca can be eaten, and fried things can also be eaten with meals, why can't fried shrimp crackers made with shrimp meat and tapioca flour be eaten with meals?" Fan Jinglan asked.

Zhuang Cui, "..."

Yes, why not?

There is nothing wrong with each of these things and steps, so why can’t it be done together?

So, why is this?

Or is there no problem at all if you eat shrimp crackers with your meal?

After all, there is no problem with each of these things and steps, so what is the problem with the food generated by these materials and steps?

So, shrimp crackers can be eaten as a meal!

Zhuang Cui came to such a conclusion, even like Fan Jinglan, he broke the last bottom line in his heart and continued to enjoy the delicious shrimp crackers with peace of mind.

Xia Mingyue, "..."

I don't know how to evaluate the behavior of these two people at the moment.

It can only be said that no one can resist the deliciousness of puffed food!

The autumn rain stopped completely after the smell of shrimp crackers dissipated a little.

Although the rain stopped completely, the chill brought by the rain became stronger and stronger, making it impossible to take off the autumn clothes originally added because of the rain.

Xia Mingyue used to be very afraid of the cold, but after taking good care of herself for a period of time this year, coupled with daily exercise, her physical condition has improved a lot. Even if she wears thinner clothes now, she doesn’t feel any discomfort. Any chill.

But in this kind of weather, even if you don't feel cold, it is very comfortable to have some hot food and soup.

Tear the white fungus into small pieces, add red dates, wolfberry, rock sugar, etc. and cook it into a pot of steaming, sweet and sticky white fungus soup. Have a bowl of it in the morning or in the afternoon. Full of satisfaction.

Snow pear, rock sugar, wolfberry, red dates, tangerine peel, etc. are boiled into Sydney tea that nourishes yin and moisturizes the lungs. Put it on a small casserole and boil it continuously. When drinking, pour a pot into it and drink it while it is hot. , produce fluid and quench thirst, making the whole body feel comfortable.

Dried chrysanthemums, dried lotus leaves, rock sugar, etc. are boiled into tea that clears away heat and removes dryness. Drink a pot of it in late autumn when the weather is dry, and your whole body will be clear...

Xia Mingyue thinks these hot drinks taste great and are very simple to make. She simply dries them all and divides them into portions according to the proportion. Wrap them in paper for easy use later. Take.

In addition, it is also convenient to take some to give to relatives and friends, and enjoy the warmth and comfort of this late autumn together. (End of this chapter)
