sauteed shelled shrimp

Some say that this dish is the best dish of Shanghai. Its Chinese name means crystal shrimp. The name came from the look of the dish since the shrimp would look almost transparent. Although it looks like a dish simply made of shrimp, the material processing and cooking can be quite complicated. What makes the dish good is that each bite first gives crisp feeling at the skin of the shrimp, but when you bite furthur you will soon feel the tender and juicy shrimp body. To make the shrimp taste like this depends on the skills of the cook and how much time he spends, the shrimp processing before being cooked is important and needs several hours, including cooling off in the refrigirator for a few hours. The dish can be found in a lot of Shanghai restaurants. But only in best restaurants can you have the best taste.
