Have you ever eaten drunken shrimp? Do you think the drunken shrimp is delicious or not?

Everyone has different tastes and tastes, so the texture of the food they eat is also different. Here I will first talk about the drunken shrimp I have eaten.

Drunk shrimp is a famous traditional dish of the Han people in Nantong, Shanghai and Ningbo. As the name suggests, the shrimp is put into wine to get drunk. If you make it at home, it must be live shrimp, because the shrimp you eat before is from the river. Shrimp, its meat is delicious, full of texture, long aftertaste, tender and smooth, and also has the aroma of wine.

Drunk shrimp is a favorite of many people in the Jiangnan area. It is very delicious. As a northerner who has lived in Shanghai for many years, I am certainly no exception. I didn't accept it at first, but finally surrendered to the delicious taste of drunken shrimp.

This is a typical dish to go with wine. Many Shanghainese like to eat drunken shrimp with rice wine. Drunken shrimp is made from fresh river shrimp. The meat of river shrimp is tender and suitable for this dish. vegetable. Dead shrimps are completely unacceptable, because drunken shrimps are pickled raw and will contain parasites and bacteria to some extent. Then the bacteria in dead shrimps will multiply faster and there will be more hidden dangers.

Many people don’t dare to try this dish, thinking it’s a bit too raw and almost eaten raw, but it’s this way of cooking that makes people have endless aftertaste after eating it once.

It is precisely because raw food, although delicious, should not be eaten too much at one time to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort or allergic symptoms.

Personally, I think the meat of cooked shrimp will be older and thicker, while the drunken shrimp made from live shrimp keeps the freshness and meatiness of the shrimp!

Of course, this depends on personal preference. I think those who like to eat Japanese sashimi will also like to eat drunken shrimp, because those who like to eat sashimi generally have higher requirements for the freshness of the ingredients. One who can eat the food itself Taste, secondly, the freshness of the ingredients is relatively high, and it is impossible to make sashimi with ingredients that have been out of date for a long time!
