Yet another gastronomic disaster!!! But I learned that if you are making Thai butter steamed shrimp with glass noodles DO NOT use frozen shrimp the extra water in the frozen shrimp make the glass noodles turn to a mushy glop ....... not a texture that adds to the eating experience. Ordered out ..... KFC extra crispy. ( a possible psychological counter to the mushy noodles??).
That's one of the weird things I learned on all the cooking shows...remove the moisture from uncooked food! Pat meat dry, squeeze the heck out things like frozen hash browns, use salt to pull moisture out of tomatoes, cukes, and other vegs, etc.
