[Sca-cooks] butter fried shrimp

[Stefan li Rous]

Euriol mentioned:
<<<  also did a butter fried shrimp recipe where it was dressed in  
seasoned flour before it was fried, then fresh ginger was grated  
right over the top. >>>

Was this based on a period recipe? I'm probably mis-remembering, but  
I thought use of flour this way was out of period, although it may  
have just been late period.

Was the ginger grated over the top after or before cooking?  Why did  
you choose fresh ginger? I thought that most ginger was pretty dry by  
the time it reached Europe.

Sounds wonderful.  I'll have to try this sometime.
