Do you use the sugar water or not? This looks so good and I’m making it for supper and I read and re-read trying to figure it out.
Sugar water is only ussd to boil the walnuts in. This is definitely a must for the recipe. You discard the water afterwards. Hope you enjoy it!
This looks good! I’m wondering what the flour and egg white mixture are for. The ingredients say to mix them but you never specify what to do with it. Is this the coating for the shrimp? Thanks!
I have the same question?
What is the egg white flour mixture for??
This recipe is too lemony, I wouldnt use the lemon juice, and the flour mixture is way too thick and goopy.
