3. Use a toothpick to pick out the entire shrimp line between the second and third sections of the shrimp's back.

4. Finally, cut off the longer shrimp whiskers and the shrimp is ready.

5. Boil an appropriate amount of water in a pot and add pepper and star anise to taste.

6. Continue to pour cooking wine and white wine, rice wine is also acceptable.

7. Add sugar and a little salt.
