Shanghai Shrimp Chips

Shanghai Shrimp Chips

　　　　Made from fresh shrimp meat and fine, white starch. After being mixed with water, it becomes a transparent liquid without any cloudiness. Once deep-fried to maturity, it expands to 3–4 times its original size, emitting a natural shrimp aroma. It is crispy, fluffy, free of hard bits, and delicious in taste. The production process demands precision—from ingredient preparation and batter mixing, ensuring an even batter consistency and proper thickness; mixing the powder and dough must be thorough without any lumps; extruding and rolling the strands must result in uniform thickness, smooth surfaces, flat bases, and no air bubbles; steaming requires strict control over time and heat to ensure the product is fully cooked but not overcooked; slicing must produce smooth surfaces, even thickness, no knife marks or connected slices; drying the chips involves carefully controlling the heat to ensure even heating, gradually releasing moisture so that the chips remain flat, uncracked, and non-sticky. The final chips are semi-transparent with a glossy surface, showing cloud-like patterns and slight traces of shrimp granules. The chips are intact in shape, uniformly sized, and consistently thick or thin, with no stuck-together or broken pieces.
