Implementation Steps
01
Prepare the shrimp
Clean the shrimp in lightly salted water, then rinse with fresh water. Use scissors to cut off the heads and legs and remove the stomach sac from the head. Then make a slit along the back and pull out the vein.
Lay a paper towel down, place the shrimp on top and cover with another 2 or 3 sheets of paper towel. Press gently to soak up any water left in the shrimp. Put the shrimp in a large bowl, add 1.25g of salt and a little pepper and toss so the seasoning coats the shrimp. Then add the tapioca starch and toss again.

Place the yolks in a steamer and steam over high heat for about 15 minutes. When they are done, take the yolks out and mash them with a fork.
