Homemade Shrimp Paste

About This Recipe

This succulent shrimp recipe delivers tender, flavorful bites with minimal ingredients, letting the natural sweetness of the shrimp shine. The key lies in properly cleaning the shrimp—removing the delicate shrimp line with precision ensures a smooth, residue-free texture. Marinated with a simple blend of oil, salt, black pepper, and starch, the shrimp soak up just the right amount of seasoning while staying juicy. Chilling the mixture for at least an hour enhances the flavors and helps the starch lock in moisture, resulting in perfectly tender shrimp that are quick to cook yet packed with taste. Ideal for stir-fries, skewers, or a light appetizer, this fuss-free recipe is a must-try for seafood lovers who appreciate clean, vibrant flavors.

Step 2
Soak in cold water for a while (supplement the method of removing the shrimp line: after peeling the shrimp, you can see a black line on the back, if you pull it directly, it will break and leave a residue on the shrimp meat, the correct method is to use a small knife to lightly cut along the back to the tail, then you can easily remove the shrimp line, after removing all, soak in cold water and rinse to ensure the shrimp meat is clean).
