Introduction: Every year in May and June, it is the cheapest time of the year for crayfish, such as this year's crayfish, I feel cheaper than last year, 8 dollars or so of large meat shrimp, only 8 yuan 1 pound, compared to last year, each pound is cheaper than 1-2 yuan, so many people will recently buy a few pounds of cheap crayfish for their families to eat. Recently, people often say to me: "Why is the shrimp balls fried by yourself not tender, and the oil-braised prawns are not flavorful," in the end how to fry shrimp balls, make oil-braised prawns to be more delicious. In fact, if we want to make shrimp delicious, we must learn to choose shrimp, for example, when we buy shrimp in the vegetable market, we can often see "blue" and "red" crayfish, but many people just don't know the difference between them, and buy randomly, resulting in good shrimp balls and oil-braised prawns are not delicious. Next, I will tell you the difference between "cyan" and "red" crayfish! I hope that after reading it, you will stop buying it.
【Green crayfish】: Green crayfish is our local favorite crayfish, because the green crayfish has a thin shell, more meat, and the meat is more tender, so the green crayfish is most suitable for spicy shrimp balls. And the same weight of shrimp, the price of green crayfish will always be 2-3 yuan 1 kg cheaper than red shell shrimp, so when you fry shrimp balls, it is best to choose green crayfish, because after the green crayfish is fried, it is very good to peel the shell, and the red crayfish, it is difficult to peel the shell.
[Buy green lobster tips]: When buying green shrimp, be sure to look at the tail of the shrimp, as shown above, the shrimp tail I bought looks very clean, do not need to brush at all, you can directly fry under the pot. After seeing the shrimp tail, but also pinch the shrimp, feel whether the shrimp meat is full, if the shrimp tail is very elastic, you can rest assured to buy boldly, because this shrimp meat is particularly much, if the shrimp pinch does not have a little elasticity, we do not buy, this shrimp out of the meat is particularly small.
[Red crayfish]: The shell of the red crayfish is particularly hard, and the meat is very tight, and the size is only about 1 or two, and the meat of the tail will be full, so we often eat braised prawns in restaurants or food stalls, which are made of red crayfish. When cooking braised prawns in oil, be sure to cook with beer for 10-15 minutes, because the red crayfish shell is particularly hard, the meat is particularly tight, only cook for a while, in order to make the shrimp meat shrimp yellow more flavorful.
【Tips for buying red crayfish】: When buying red crayfish, try to buy a large head, because the larger the head, the more meat and yellow. After looking at the head, you also need to see whether the tail of the lobster is white or black, if the tail of the lobster is particularly black, we should not buy it, because the water quality of this lobster life is particularly poor, if you eat more of this crayfish, it is not very healthy for the body.
Therefore, when you buy lobster in the future, if you make spicy shrimp balls to eat, it is best to use green crayfish, if you make oil braised prawns to eat, it is best to use red crayfish. When you buy lobster, you must buy a tail that is particularly clean, and the meat and aroma of this lobster are the best.
