[Shrimp and Shiso Leaf Fresh Spring Rolls]
■ Ingredients (makes about 5 rolls)
Boiled shrimp: 2 packs (about 20 shrimp)
Green onion: 1/2 stalk
Shiitake mushrooms: 4
Shiso leaves: about 10
Rice paper: 5 sheets
Water: 150cc
[Filling Seasonings]
Sake: 2 tsp
Ginger: 3cm (tube)
Miso: 2 tsp
Aromatic seasoning paste: 1/2 tsp (or chicken bouillon powder)
[Other]
Shredded green onion (optional)
Sesame seeds: an appropriate amount
■ Instructions
1. Finely chop the shrimp (half the amount), green onions, and shiitake mushrooms
→ Place in a bowl and mix with the [Filling Seasonings]
2. Lightly rehydrate the rice paper with water,
place 2 shiso leaves → filling → 2 shrimp on top, and wrap
3. Line a frying pan with crumpled parchment paper,
add sesame oil → arrange the rolls from step 2
4. Pour 150cc of water between the frying pan and the parchment paper, cover with a lid,
and steam over medium heat for 5 minutes to finish!
■ Cooking Tips
Don't over-rehydrate the rice paper; it's easier to roll when it's just "moist"
Knead the filling thoroughly to concentrate the flavor!
Sesame oil adds fragrance, and steaming makes them juicy
■ The Secret to the Flavor
With the umami of miso and aromatic paste,
the inside is fluffy, and the outside is chewy and fragrant.
Feel free to serve with shredded green onions or vinegar soy sauce.
This is a recipe you'll get hooked on, whether as a "gourmet appetizer" or a "companion for evening drinks."
