Honey walnut shrimp recipe & video…
But hold on to the walnut!!
Am I the only one who gets annoyed by walnut when eating honey walnut shrimp??
I mean, I love candied walnut, don’t give wrong!
But I LOVE shrimp and only shrimp in honey walnut shrimp. lol
I never eat candied walnut in honey walnut shrimp, and I always felt bad!
So when I make homemade, I decided not to worry about candied walnut.
Of course, if you love walnut in honey walnut shrimp, go ahead and add!
There are lots of candied walnut recipes if you google it! 🙂
I like my sauce to have mixture of honey and condensed milk to give nice creamy sweetness. But you can omit condensed milk and add only honey to your taste.
Honey walnut shrimp tastes better when you keep it simple.
Blackpepper didn’t even needed!!
Hope you give a try at home, because it literally takes less than 15 minutes to make this dish!!
