Ingredients for Fresh Shrimp Squash Soup For 2 people

Squash 500 gr Fresh shrimp 100 gr Green onion/cilantro 2 branches Red onion 2 bulbs Fish sauce 1/2 tablespoon Cooking oil 2 tablespoons Common spices a little (MSG/ground pepper/salt/seasoning)

How to choose fresh and delicious shrimp

  • Fresh shrimp should have a dark green color, a firm and straight body, and a curved tail without slime, while spoiled shrimp or shrimp injected with chemicals to slow down decomposition usually have a pale color, the body can be bent, and the tail spreads out.
  • You can hold the shrimp up to the light; if the joints of the shrimp are separated, you don’t feel the tension, or if you press on the body and feel grit, it’s best not to buy them as they may be old shrimp that have been frozen for a long time.
  • You should buy shrimp at reputable markets or supermarkets to ensure freshness and quality.

    The shrimp, after being bought, should have their heads and tails removed, then washed clean 2 – 3 times with diluted salt water and rinsed again with clean water, then drained.

How to choose good quality dried shrimp (dried shrimp paste)

  • Good quality dried shrimp (dried shrimp paste) usually has a reddish-pink or light yellow color, with uniformly sized shrimp that emit the characteristic fragrance of dried shrimp.
  • Dried shrimp are often packaged, so when buying, you need to check carefully. Only choose dried shrimp that are not moldy, have little dust, the packaging is not torn, the source of origin is clear, and they are not expired.
  • To choose good quality dried shrimp, you should buy from reputable dry food stores, supermarkets, or shopping centers like TasteVN or you can also make safe and hygienic dried shrimp at home.
  • Avoid buying dried shrimp that are too dark red, as they have been artificially colored, which can be harmful to health when consumed.

How to choose fresh and delicious gourd

  • For gourds, you need to buy fresh young ones because the younger the gourd, the sweeter and softer it is to eat.
  • Young gourds usually have many fine hairs, a thin skin (you can press it with your fingernail), and when held, they feel heavy and firm.
  • A fresh gourd has a thick stem that is still wet with sap; when cut, it oozes juice, and the seeds inside are small and soft, making them edible.
