Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Turn off the heat immediately after adding the shrimp to the bouillon to prevent overcooking and maintain a springy texture.
  • Red onion has a strong sweetness and is good for raw pickling; soaking in vinegar removes its sharpness and adds a tangy flavor.
  • Save the shrimp heads and shells to use later for seafood stock or bisque sauce.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to minimize stove use on hot summer days and enjoy a light seafood dish.
  • Those looking for an upscale Italian-style salad recipe that pairs well with white wine.
  • Those who love the springy texture of shrimp and the refreshing taste of lemon.
