1 lb shrimp (peeled and deveined )
1 tablespoon egg white
1½ teaspoons tapioca starch (菱粉)
1 tablespoon baking soda

Langkah-langkah

Peel the shrimp, slit the back, and remove the veins. Transfer the shrimp to a large deep bowl and add ice-cold water from your fridge (or regular tap water with some ice cubes). Ensure the shrimp are fully submerged in the water.
Add 1 heaping tablespoon of baking soda to the bowl and lightly massage the shrimp in the baking soda water. Set aside for 30 minutes.
Rinse the shrimp thoroughly under cold running water and pat them dry with paper towels. By now, the shrimp should appear somewhat translucent.
Add the egg white and tapioca starch to the shrimp. Use your hands to blend well while lightly massaging the shrimp.
Cover the shrimp with plastic wrap and marinate overnight. Cook the shrimp without rinsing off the marinade.
