Shanghai Drunken Prawns
Chinese Drunken Prawns
Ingredients:
500 grams of shrimp, garlic cloves, ginger, sugar, salt, 150 grams of high-quality liquor, 200 grams of rice wine
Method:
Rinse the shrimps under tap water for about 10 minutes
Soak the shrimps in a basin of warm water for a further 10 minutes
Mix the liquor with the rice wine
Steep the shrimp in this alcohol solution and add crushed garlic, ginger, salt and sugar (to taste) and leave them for half an hour
The alcohol level of the mixture should remain at at least 50 percent, because it is also necessary to kill any remaining parasites on the shrimp roe. And the liquor used should be of a very high quality, because it will naturally be consumed alongside the shrimp.
People who are not used to alcohol should refrain from enjoying too much drunken shrimp. Online forums have noted how some motorists who have consumed drunken shrimp have even been tested positive for driving over the alcohol limit, so caution is advised.
