Due to living in an environment of brackish water and alluvial estuaries with a lot of food, shrimp meat is sweet and firm. Shrimps are usually caught on the 15th and 30th of each lunar month.
The river shrimp is not very large, with a thick, hard shell. It takes 10kg of fresh shrimp to make 1kg of dried shrimp.
Here’s how to make dried shrimp: First, boil the shrimp in high heat. About 5 minutes after the shrimp is just cooked, take it out immediately. Then let it dry in the sun. Usually, people boil shrimp in the early morning to have more time to sunbathe. The process of drying shrimp in the sun for 2 days is just enough for the dried shrimp to be fragrant and delicious.
