Live prawns is best to be eaten steamed. They taste great without any seasonings - just steam with the prawns alone and nothing else. That, we call 白绰虾. The prawns taste sweet! This time round I'm going to steam it with Angelica Sinensis aka 当归. Read more This Chinese herb is also know as the female Ginseng aka 人参 and is very good in treating mild anemia. So, for the ladies, after 'the period' of each month, cook something with 当归. Good for you! *wink* Well, that's what my aunt always say. My little girl is already loving this herb. She loves the soup! Smart girl! 实货! See less
