How to make dried shrimp and vermicelli casserole

1. Ingredients: one wax gourd, a handful of Longkou vermicelli, appropriate amounts of dried shrimp, green onions, and ginger, and a bottle of Guanghe fermented bean curd (or other white fermented bean curd), add as appropriate.

2. Preparation: After heating the clay pot, pour a little oil into it, stir-fry the scallion, ginger, and dried shrimp, then add the shredded wax gourd, add water until it just covers the wax gourd, add 3-4 pieces of fermented bean curd, mash and dissolve in the soup, cover and bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to low heat, as wax gourd is easy to cook and does not need to be cooked for too long. Finally, add the softened vermicelli, add salt and serve. The clay pot itself has a high temperature and dissipates heat slowly, so do not cook the vermicelli for a long time after putting it in, otherwise the vermicelli will be overcooked and absorb the soup.

How to store dried shrimps

3. Whether you are storing light or salty dried shrimps, you can put an appropriate amount of garlic in the bottle to prevent them from being infested by insects.

4. Store directly in the refrigerator and consume within a certain period of time.
