    Clean the fresh shrimp, trim off the whiskers and legs, and remove the shrimp vein. If the marinating time is short, you can peel off the shrimp shell to help it absorb the flavor. If it can be marinated overnight, peeling the shell is not necessary.

    After the shrimp are prepared, wash them again, then pour in high-proof white liquor and soak for twenty minutes.

    After soaking in high-proof liquor, pour the alcohol out. I remember when my mom pickled shrimp, she didn't add any alcohol, and it still tasted good. For those who don't like it, you can skip it.
