How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh shrimp
- You should choose shrimp that have the distinctive aroma of seawater and feel firm to the touch without being slimy.
- Fresh shrimp are those with transparent shells, the head tightly attached to the body, and the legs and tail are neatly arranged.
- Avoid buying shrimp that have a strange odor, and those with legs and tails spread out as these have been injected with chemicals.
How to choose quality chicken eggs
- Industrial chicken eggs usually have a dark brown shell, evenly colored, without any black spots on the outside. In contrast, local and free-range chicken eggs often have a pale color; the whiter the shell, the tastier the egg will be.
- When you hold the egg and shake it gently close to your ear, if you don’t hear any noise, this is a fresh egg and should be purchased.
- You can touch the eggshell with your hand; if the surface feels rough, this is a freshly laid egg because the small pores on the eggshell have not closed yet.
- Avoid choosing eggs with a smooth surface, and if you hear a noise when shaking, it may be a stale egg.

Prepare the ingredients
After buying the shrimp, peel off the shell, remove the shrimp head, and take out the dark vein on the back of the shrimp. Then wash them clean with water, drain them in a basket and let them dry.
Quick and clean way to remove the shrimp vein:
- Step 1: Count back from the tail of the shrimp to the second groove connecting two shell segments, poke a toothpick through this position and gently pull the dark vein out.
- Step 2: You can use a knife or toothpick to dig out the front part of the shrimp body to see the dark vein. Gently pull this dark vein out, and the shrimp will be clean.
Next, you crack an egg into a bowl and use a chopsticks to stir well. Add 1 tablespoon of fish sauce and 1/2 tablespoon of seasoning to the bowl and mix well.
