Steps for Steamed crayfish

1
LG bought crayfish from the market. Since it entered the sights of Wuhan people more than ten years ago, the price of crayfish has soared from a few yuan per catty to the current price of tens of yuan per catty. Moreover, it was originally sold in any vegetable market, but now it has to be bought in a big market.
2
The first step is to bath the shrimp. I always brush it several times from beginning to end with a toothbrush
3
The two pliers of the shrimp should also be brushed clean, and you will need to eat them later.
4
When brushing its pliers, I was thinking that people use two pliers to protect themselves, but humans still have to eat them because of their tongue.
5
Before brushing and steaming, there is another main step, which is to pull out the intestines of the shrimps. See the three tail fins on the tail of the shrimp?
6
Lift the fan in the middle, pull it out hard, and the intestines of the shrimp will be pulled out. There are two left and right tail wings left
7
Look, this is a plucked shrimp sausage with a lot of dirt in it.
8
Put the processed shrimp on a pot and steam with cold water
9
Then adjust the dipping ingredients. For steamed vegetables, the seasoning is very important. We must not only maintain the light characteristics, but also bring out the delicious taste. There is no shortage of onions, ginger and garlic in the dipping sauce. Cut the shallot and ginger into the ground, press the garlic into the ground, and put it into a small bowl.
10
Then add soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, pepper, monosodium glutamate to the bowl, and finally add a little sesame oil. Some people may think it is strange why salt is not added, because steamed dishes are characterized by fresh food, including soy sauce and vinegar, which gives them a little salty taste. If you add salt, the flavor will be strong and will take away the umami flavor. (Friends who like spicy food can also add a small amount of chili oil and pepper oil)
11
Five minutes after the air comes out of the small hole in the steamer, turn off the heat, and the shrimp are steamed. (After steaming for a long time, the shrimp meat will not taste tender.)
12
When you open the shrimp head, you will see the shrimp yellow and shrimp meat, which you can dip in and eat.
13
Look, this is the shrimp head. When taking pictures, the heat from the shrimp head fogged my camera lens.
14
This is the meat at the tail of the shrimp. When dipped in the dip, it tastes Q, elastic, smooth and refreshing.
15
This is a shrimp pincer eaten by LG. Does it look very tempting to bite open a lump of white shrimp meat?
16
My sister can eat the shrimp tongs, and she is also very cute.Steamed crayfish Make Tips
1. The intestines of the shrimp tail must be pulled out, otherwise the dirt will be eaten into the stomach. The intestines are actually easy to pull out.
2. Adjusting the dipping ingredients is important, so don't mix them too salty.
3. Don't steam the shrimp for too long. After steaming for too long, the meat will become too old and affect the taste.
