Cooking tips

  • When toasting the bread, keep the heat low—high heat can burn the outside while leaving the inside soft.
  • Thaw frozen shrimp completely under cold water before use, then pat dry thoroughly with kitchen paper to prevent oil splatter.
  • The addition of chicken stock gives this homemade gambas a much deeper, addictive umami flavor compared to using salt alone.

Recommended for

  • Those needing a last-minute visual appetizer for unexpected guests or a home party.
  • People who prefer soft, moist sandwich bread over the crunchy texture of baguette.
  • Those wanting to enjoy international dishes reimagined with a spicy, salty Korean twist.
