Shrimp paste is a local specialty in coastal areas. Because shrimps are rich in protein and contain a wide variety of amino acids that make up protein, they are the main source of the delicious flavor of shrimp paste. However, high-protein ingredients rich in amino acids can easily produce a "fishy smell" during the fermentation process, so some people vividly call shrimp paste "stinky shrimp paste". Therefore, when making shrimp paste dishes, how to retain the fresh flavor of shrimp paste to the greatest extent and at the same time completely remove the "fishy smell" of shrimp paste has become a top priority. Add 3 kinds of shrimp paste and mix 2 kinds
If the shrimp paste is fried well, it will be fresh and if it is fried wrong, it will be smelly. Remember "put 3 kinds of shrimp paste and mix 2 kinds". The fried shrimp paste will be delicious and not fishy: 1. Chili pepper. Shrimp paste likes to be paired with chili, and both fresh chili and dried chili are favorite ingredients for shrimp paste. 2. Green onions. Green onions and chilies are excellent ingredients to add freshness to shrimp paste. The amount of green onions is also larger. The chopped green onions should not be too small, otherwise the flavor will not be tasted. 3. Eggs. Shrimp paste loves eggs the most. There is a classic dish in the north, scrambled eggs with shrimp paste, which is a delicious dish made with shrimp paste and eggs. 4. Add a small amount of cooking wine and pepper. The two most effective seasonings for removing fishy and odorous shrimp paste are pepper and cooking wine. However, the dosage must not be too much, as too much is not enough. Approximately 0.3 grams of pepper and 5 grams of cooking wine are enough for each dish, but more will cover up the fresh flavor of the shrimp paste. Fried shrimp paste with green chili

1. Shrimp paste is highly salty. Generally, the amount used in a dish is 30-35 grams. If it is less, the taste will not be fresh, and if it is too much, it will be so salty that you will doubt your life. Also remember not to add any salty seasonings, such as salt, soy sauce, etc.
2. You must be willing to put green onions in fried shrimp paste. Each dish should be at least 100 grams. The green onions should also be chopped roughly. If they are too small, they will not be fragrant. Under the action of high oil temperature, small pieces of dry red pepper can easily become blackened and bitter after frying. Remember to pour the shrimp paste and egg liquid into the small pieces of dried red chili immediately after they are fragrant.
