Hi everyone, thank you so much for watching. This year, we will have a special video to show how to prepare a proper Chinese new year eve dinner, also known as "the feast of reunion (团圆饭)". I will make 9 dishes, rice, a drink and a couple of snacks. This shrimp cracker is one of the snacks. Make sure you look for my new year video, it will be published on 31st Jan. Wish you a wonderful new year. Mandy
@@jackkristinep other starch like cornstarch and potato starch can be used in this recipe but tapioca is the best because it makes your shrimp cracker puff up bigger and more crunchy.
This is the BEST Chinese cooking channel on TH-cam...hands down. The way you take the time to explain each and every step, and the science behind what you are doing is just amazing. Not to mention, that when you give the Chinese names for things you pronounce them clearly and slowly for us English speakers. Too many Asian cooking channels don't give the proper names in a manner that we can actually hear as primary English speakers. It's extremely helpful to know what they are called and the proper pronunciation so that when we go to the Asian markets to get these ingredients....we can actually relay to the workers there what we are looking for. You're so thoughtful with all of the information you provide for us, and I absolutely love watching your videos for this reason. Keep it up...you are awesome!
Years ago when we first moved to California, we went to a Vietnamese restaurant. My very first and way different than they are now. They had a lemon beef salad with a sweet dressing, and shrimp crackers on the side. You used the crackers to scoop up the salad. I thought it was divine! I've since wanted to copy it. And that was from the 80s! I will tuck this little recipe away for my experiments. Thank you for sharing!
Thank-You so much for this ☺️ I love shrimp crackers. I saw this recipe once on Liziqi's channel and became curious cause they looked really good. I ended up ordering a bag online to try them and fell in love 😁 Liziqi's video was in chinese so I tried finding other videos to show how they're made...but no other video gave measurements or cooking times or real direction so I've been buying them on-line (they're a bit expensive) I'm glad to finally see a video that teaches me how to make my own. You find the most delicious foods in China, Korea, and Japan ☺️❤️
@@lovemesomeslippers You can find different brands of shrimp crackers on Amazon. Their listed as "Shrimp Chips" they have the pre-packaged already made and the kind you fry yourself 🙂 I've found all kinds of Chinese and Korean foods...even moon cakes... they can just be expensive....
@@lovemesomeslippers go to your local Asian, Chinese, Korean or Japanese specialty stores.. Where I live, we have a lot of mom and pop stores, KP International Market and SF Market which has 15 locations nation wide.. I live in Sacramento, CA 5 miles from my home are 3 Chinese owned and ran mom and pop stores. If I want something I ask them and they will either find it or order items for me .
This is one of the first times I've watched your video all the way through. I love the details you share (what things are supposed to look like, and general troubleshooting - what happens if not boiled all the way). Your content and video quality are first rate! Keep up the good work!
My Indonesian-Dutch grandmother would make krupuk regularly. She would limit us to 5-6 crackers each! Now I always serve them when I make lumpia with rice and peanut sauce. I've always wondered how they were made...can't wait to try this recipe.
I have a friend whose been making these for ages. I'm amazed at how good of a job he does knowing know the care and technique that goes into them. Now my appreciation is on a deeper level than taste. Excellent video, I really enjoyed it.
I bought your chopsticks. They a GORGEOUS and so well made! It is a joy to have friends over and present them with authentic food and utensils. Thank you! ❤️
Thank you again for the recipe Mandy!I'm excited for your chinese new year dinner recipe video.My country also have cracker like these but they're made of a type of fish..They're my favorite treat and a great party food.Now i know how they are made and make it at home!💗
This is awesome! My family has made shrimp cracker 'chips' (called Krupuk...sounds like kroo-pook) for special occasions but have always bought them at the asian store. I had no idea that I could make them from scratch. It's a lot of work but looks like it is totally worth the effort. I don't know how many times I've made these from store-bought and they just taste a little old/stale. Thanks for this great recipe!
It really is worth the effort. I was using a different recipe, which has different ratios / spices and called for steaming instead of boiling, they came out really good. Interestingly my version puffed up even in the air fryer, but to my dismay, I couldn't get store bought ones to puff up in the airfryer.
I saw some guy attempt to make it at home but made it seem sooo complex. When I saw your title I knew this was going to be really good It is. I WILL make it at home.
I love Krupuk! Finally I know how this is done. Whether I'll cook that up, I don't know yet. The finished products are delicious and that's work. But definitely thumbs up for the recipe
I had these at a Dutch Family's party when I was a kid...they had them because they lived in Singapore for a while because Dad's job sent him there, then they moved to California back in the early 70's, and they were in California because of Dad's job again and that's were I tried them.
Wow! My favorites! Used to be able to buy them unfried in a box and they were pretty colors, pink, green, white…..but I haven’t found them in years. Now I can make my own!
Thank you Mandy for this awesome video and recipe! It reminds me of many years celebrating Chinese New Year in Toronto at our favorite restaurant in China Town. Your explanations and attention to details is amazing. Can't wait to view your new year video.
I love these so much, every time I go to the grocery I buy a box to fry, eating as I go along. Shrimp crackers has been a favorite of mines since I was a child. My family loves it and we make a dip. Thanks for sharing and blessings
I was JUST watching someone review shirmp crackers from their local Costco and I was sad because my Costco does not have them, I'm so excited to try and make these! Thank you so much for your videos, I really enjoy watching you and learning how to make some of my favorite recipes!
THESE ARE A GREAT LOT OF FUN TO MAKE ESPECIALLY FOR KIDS TO WATCH PUFFING UP IN HOT FAT BUT HERE IN CANADA(QUEBEC) OURS ARE PASTEL COLORED PINK, YELLOW, ORANGE ,GREEN. I USE THEM FOR DECORATION WHEN I DEEP FRY CHICKEN OR DUCK!!
Thank you for explaining this. I first saw the raw uncooked cracker when I had to fix an industrial fryer that cooks the pellets. I couldn't believe that prawn crackers started life as a 'piece of plastic'. Since then I have always wanted to know how to make them.
I will never make these but it was very satisfying to watch. I will never complain about the shrimp chip prices again, after seeing the gruel process. Thank you for sharing. Gung Hay Fat Choy
omg homemade shrimp cracker recipe!! This is my favorite snack and looking for the commercial bagged and the unfried chips is difficult. Thank you for sharing ❤️
Oh wow! Thank you for this! I can't wait to try this recipe! And thanks for providing the link for your clay pot....I was going to ask, I like the design on the lid!
A nice show with a clear presentation, I don't suggest you to use a red plastic spoon in the hot boiling water and oil to avoid harmful chemicals release. Good Luck!
Always wondered how these are made, to be truthful I never realised just how long it took to prep, hours in the fridge and to dehydrate but only two seconds to cook, lol. Will definitely give the recipe a go.
Oh my goodness, I love shrimp crackers! I grew up on them and can eat a whole bag. lol I would love to make this one day but I need to get a dehydrator first. Thank you for sharing your recipe.😃👍👍👍
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! That's you Mandy with this Awesome Recipe! Thank you for showing us how these Shrimp Crackers are made from Scratch. Seriously, the Store-bought ones has like 70% broken pieces in the box and hardly has any shrimp flavor. LOL!
Mandy THANK YOU !!!.. These are soooo expensive in the market here in Ohio.. like 5$ a bag expensive.. and I never will buy them.. soo Thank you so Much for sharing your recipe with us... ✌😘👌 soo yummy.
Another excellent Recipe Mandy however they do take a long time to make, BUT they're worth it !!! You can also slice them on (a very good - Probably French lol) Mandolin but you do need to oil the blade (a cheap Canola oil from a squeeze bottle works well, but use ONLY a tiny bit of oil each time). I've been making these for Aeons, and they're SO much better than shop bought ones. I really like your addition of Fish sauce, so Ive replaced the Anchovy paste I generally use with the your fish sauce idea. GoodOnYa

Wow, gluten free snacks!
Can we use flour?
@@jackkristinep other starch like cornstarch and potato starch can be used in this recipe but tapioca is the best because it makes your shrimp cracker puff up bigger and more crunchy.
@@SoupedUpRecipes thank so u much!
By any chance will you be making Moqua using winter melon instead of fuzzy melon and crab for the protein?

Very cool! Such time and labor intensive recipes always blows my mind! The fact that someone went through the time and effort to create that process

I love this little Chinese lady because she makes you feel like you can do it too.
It's very easy to obtain in my country with various kinds of qualities and cheap but it's always good to know the process.
I bought your chopsticks. They a GORGEOUS and so well made! It is a joy to have friends over and present them with authentic food and utensils. Thank you! ❤️

I so love watching these crackers puff up and grow. So satisfying to watch.
Omggggg these were my favorite when i was a child my mother used to make it for me. I really want to try this on my children.
They are so good and you're right - you do need to make a lot because they do go quick.
I love when the ingredients are simple without chemicals like glutamates or additives… I will try it thanks for the recipe!
i appreciate your channel so much, you are a natural teacher.
Wow, I can’t believe I’ve never thought about how shrimp crackers were made in all my 24 years of life.
I saw some guy attempt to make it at home but made it seem sooo complex. When I saw your title I knew this was going to be really good It is. I WILL make it at home.
Oh Mandy I'm thrilled for this recipe! Thank you very much! 🌹💗
Mandy is right they are really good my family makes them every week as a healthy snack 😋
I was kinda wondering if this might be a good healthy snack optionally
I’ve been looking for a recipe for years! Thank you so much 💞
I never thought of trying to make these myself. I’ll try it soon to compare the home made ones to the store bought
Wow mad respect! I never knew ANYONE that made these at home short of buying the mix
I haven’t eaten these in years. Now I’m excited to try making my own. The ones I had years ago had been colored yellow and some were pink.
Can hardly wait for that special dinner episode
I love Krupuk! Finally I know how this is done. Whether I'll cook that up, I don't know yet. The finished products are delicious and that's work. But definitely thumbs up for the recipe
Omg I love thisss!!!! Its called "kroepoek" in the Netherlands and youcan buy it everywhere its rly popular here!

This looks so scrumptious! I like that you can make it ahead and store it.
This is excellent. I grew up eating these and I bought them at the 88 in the south end Boston Massachusetts
This looks wonderful. Love shrimp.
Thank for explaining in such detail!! I think it’s really cool how these are made. Take care and stay safe and healthy.
