STIR-FRIED SESAME SHRIMP AND SPINACH



Stir-Fried Sesame Shrimp and Spinach image

The classic Chinese way to clean shrimp and ensure a succulent flavor and crisp texture, says Grace Young, author of "Stir-Frying to the Sky's Edge," is to use a combination of salt and water, either dousing the shrimp in two rinses of heavily salted water or rubbing the shrimp with salt, then rinsing with water. If you don't eat salt, then just rinse the shrimp with plain water. I recommend bunch spinach for this; you don't have to stem it, just cut away the base of the leaves and rinse well.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 15m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
Salt to taste
1/8 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons canola oil or light sesame oil
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crumbled dried red chili
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 generous bunch spinach (about 1 pound), stems trimmed at the end, rinsed in 2 changes water
2 teaspoons dark sesame oil

Steps:

  • Place the shrimp in a large colander and rinse with water. Sprinkle generously with salt and toss together for about a minute. Rinse with water and repeat. After rinsing one more time, drain on paper towels. Pat dry with more paper towels.
  • Combine 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste) and the sugar in a small bowl and place close to your wok.
  • Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in 1 tablespoon of the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and swirling the pan, then add the garlic, ginger and chili flakes and stir-fry for no more than 10 seconds. Push to the sides of the pan and add the shrimp in one layer. Let cook undisturbed for 1 minute, then add the remaining oil and stir-fry for 1 minute.
  • Add the sesame seeds and spinach and stir-fry for 1 minute, until it has begun to wilt but the wilting is still uneven. Add the salt and sugar, sprinkling it evenly over the spinach, and continue to stir-fry until the spinach has wilted but is still bright and the shrimp are cooked through and bright pink, about 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat, drizzle on the sesame oil, toss together and serve, with rice, noodles or other grains.

SPICY SESAME SHRIMP & NOODLE SALAD



Spicy Sesame Shrimp & Noodle Salad image

One of our favorite Korean dishes has always been a Korean Cold Sesame Noodles that my Mom made for us. It was supposed to be served at room temperature, but I like it warm. The shrimp-noodle salad recipe was a result of memories of my Mom's Korean background, and my love of fresh vegetables, packed full of flavor. The gochujang (hot chili paste) is a more savory kind of heat, that really blends beautifully with sesame, soy sauce and garlic. -Karen Bowlden, Boise, Idaho

3/4 cup chicken broth
1/4 teaspoon salt

Tips:

  • To make sure your shrimp are perfectly cooked, use a meat thermometer to check that they have reached an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check for doneness by looking at the shrimp. They should be opaque and slightly pink in the center.
  • Don't overcrowd the shrimp in the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • If you're using frozen shrimp, be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
