White boiled shrimp

Devein the shrimp by sticking a toothpick underneath the vein and pulling it out; leave the shell on.

Fill a big pot with water, add ginger slices and scallions and bring to a boil.

Add the shrimp and count one minute, then turn off the heat and put on the lid.

Let the shrimp sit in the hot water 2 to 3 more minutes depending on size; longer turns the flesh rubbery.

Fish them out; peel by hand, dip in the seasoning rub and squeeze lemon juice over.
