Directions
Hot and Sour Shrimp, Chinese hot and sour shrimp cooks quickly so need to have all ingredients ready before heating up the wok. Marinating time in not included in prep time (8-24 hours). Recipe source: Bon Appetit (January 1983), Outstanding flavor in this dish! My husband and I wiped out the whole batch, served over steamed jasmine rice. While I was making it, I thought I would only give 4 stars, but after tasting it….5 all the way. Just a couple of minor problems….step #8 says to combine a bunch of ingredients, including garlic, but no garlic is mentioned in the ingredient list. used two cloves and it was great. I also had to increase the cooking times for the shrimp and vegetables. I rinsed the salt off of the fermented black beans, as I usually do when using them, and mashed them up a little…don’t leave them out, they really add a lot to this dish. We loved this Ellie, thanks for the recipe!, Chinese hot and sour shrimp cooks quickly so need to have all ingredients ready before heating up the wok.
