How to prepare Stir-Fried Shrimp With Snow Peas and Ginger

Stir-Fried Shrimp With Snow Peas and Ginger






In 2005, Julia Moskin composed an amazing article about woks, the best sort for American kitchens (a 14-inch weighty measure carbon-steel wok with a level base) and how to prepare it. This formula, adjusted from Grace Young's book, "The Breath of a Wok," ran close by it. 

It is straightforward, new and quick. It cooks in less than 5 minutes, so start your pot of rice as you clean the shrimp and hack the ginger, garlic and scallions.


INGREDIENTS 

  • 1 tablespoon plus 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  •  cup chicken broth
  • 2 teaspoons rice wine or dry sherry
  • 1 ½ teaspoons soy sauce
  • 1 ½ teaspoons cornstarch
  • ¾ teaspoon sugar
  •  teaspoon ground white pepper
  • 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon minced ginger
  • 6 ounces snow peas, strings removed, washed and dried
  • 1 scallion, chopped

PREPARATION 


STEP 1
  1. In a large bowl combine 2 cups cold water and 1 tablespoon salt, stirring until salt is dissolved. Add shrimp, and let stand five minutes. Rinse shrimp under cold running water, and set to dry on paper towels. With more towels, pat shrimp dry.
  2. STEP 2
  3. In a bowl, combine broth, wine, soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar and pepper.
  4. STEP 3
  5. Heat a wok over high heat. To test heat flick a few drops of water into wok. When water vaporizes within 2 seconds, wok is hot. Swirl in 1 tablespoon oil around sides of wok. Add shrimp, spreading them in a single layer, so they have contact with hot metal. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes or just until pink, tossing them with a wok shovel or spatula. Add remaining 2 teaspoons oil, garlic and ginger, and stir-fry 5 seconds. Add snow peas and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and stir-fry 1 minute more.
  6. STEP 4
  7. Stir cornstarch mixture, swirl it in around sides of wok, and bring to a boil. Stir-fry just until shrimp are cooked through and sauce has thickened, about 30 seconds more. Stir in scallions, and serve immediately.

Drinking Water Crisis in Rural Towns

Drinking water is essential for life, but many rural towns in the U.S. are struggling to provide safe and reliable water to their residents. For decades, these towns have neglected their drinking water systems, resulting in aging infrastructure, water quality violations, and financial challenges. In this blog post, we will explore some of the causes and consequences of this crisis, and what can be done to address it. Causes of the Crisis One of the main causes of the crisis is the shrinking population of many rural towns. As people move to urban areas or other states, the tax base and the customer base of the water systems decline. This means less revenue to cover the costs of operation, maintenance, and improvement of the water systems. According to a report by the American Bar Association³, in 2015, 9 percent of all water systems had a documented violation of water quality standards, exposing 21 million people to unhealthy drinking water. These violations were more likely to occur in...
