Описание: Cooking Steps

*1. Preparing the Shrimp:*
*Ingredients:* 8 ounces shrimp
Make a deep cut along the back of each shrimp for better flavor penetration and appearance.
Add 1 teaspoon minced ginger and 1 teaspoon salt to the shrimp. Mix well and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

*2. Preparing the Celery:*
*Ingredients:* 10 ounces celery
Use a peeler to remove tough fibers from the surface of the celery.
Slice the celery diagonally into small pieces.

*3. Washing and Marinating the Shrimp:*
Rinse the shrimp under running water several times to remove the salt. Drain them.
Use kitchen paper to absorb as much moisture as possible.
For the second marination, add 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon white pepper, and 1/3 egg white to the shrimp. Mix well.
Add 1 teaspoon cornstarch to lock in the moisture. Let it sit for 10 minutes.

*4. Blanching the Ingredients:*
Bring a pan of water to a boil.
Add 1 teaspoon cooking oil and a pinch of salt to the boiling water.
Blanch the celery for about one minute, then drain.
In the same pan, when the water boils again, turn the heat down to low and gently slide in the shrimp, making sure they don't overlap.
Let the shrimp set for a few seconds, then gently stir them.
Once the shrimp turn color, take them out and drain.

*5. Final Cooking:*
Heat 1 teaspoon cooking oil in a pan over medium heat.
Add 1/4 cup water, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon sugar, and 1/8 teaspoon white pepper. Stir until well combined.
When the mixture comes to a boil, add a small amount of cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce.
Add the blanched celery and shrimp. Stir-fry quickly to coat everything evenly with the sauce.
