Speaking of shrimp, it is rich in nutrients, has soft meat, contains high protein, is easy to digest, and has fewer bones than fish. Therefore, it can be said to be a food suitable for all ages, except for those who are allergic to shrimp. Shrimp can be used to make a variety of dishes, such as blanching, braising, steaming, frying, etc. Shrimp can also be used to make hot pot. The most delicious one is Wang Po Shrimp Hot Pot. Let’s talk about how to make Wang Po Shrimp Hot Pot.

Wash the processed shrimp with clean water and cut a hole on the back of the shrimp with a knife. Add salt and cooking wine and marinate for half an hour; cut the scallions into sections and slice the ginger and garlic. Salt, cooking wine, oyster sauce, sugar, peppercorns, dried chili peppers, and most importantly, Pixian bean paste.
