Features:

Egg-flavored shrimp is fresh, with complimentary taste, supple taste, and rich nutrition.

Key point 1:

The egg liquid must be even and use the filter to remove the foam, otherwise, the steamed eggs are likely to have pores and not smooth. Dried shrimp should be soaked in wine, otherwise, it will smell fishy

Key point 2:

It is better to use a medium or low heat to steam the egg fire, otherwise, the egg liquid will easily fly away. The last thickened juice should not be too thick, which affects the taste.
