How to make grilled shrimp Illustration of homemade grilled shrimp snacks 1

Step 1

Except for the seed shrimp, simmer the other ingredients in a small pot for about 20 minutes and let cool until ready to use (you can adjust the saltiness of the ingredients according to your own taste or consider whether to add dried chili peppers to create a spicy taste) Illustration of homemade grilled shrimp snacks 2

Step 2

Pick out the male shrimps and especially large and small shrimps (it doesn’t matter if the final product is whole-seed shrimps, you can ignore this step) Illustration of homemade grilled shrimp snacks 3

Step 3

Cut off the beards of the picked shrimps (it doesn’t matter if you have to scratch your mouth at the end, you can just be lazy and skip the step) Illustration of homemade grilled shrimp snacks 4

Step 4

Blanch the processed seed shrimp and soak them in the brine cooked in the first step for more than half an hour. Illustration of homemade grilled shrimp snacks 5

Step 5

After the soaking is completed, drain the water and distribute it evenly on the baking sheet. If it is a smaller shrimp, heat it up and down at 170 degrees for 25 minutes. If it is a medium size, heat it at 170 degrees for more than 30 minutes. I put oil-absorbing paper on it, but you can use tin foil to set the temperature. You can increase the temperature and shorten the time, but I still recommend low heat and slow roasting until it is cooked through. Illustration of homemade grilled shrimp snacks 6

Step 6

This color is the finished product. If you like it crispier, you can bake it for 5 more minutes at this color. Grilled shrimp cooking tips
