Notes
Rice
Sushi Rice is typically used for Hawaiian Shrimp Plates. Cook rice ahead of time.
Shrimp
You can use either fresh or frozen. Try to get the 21-25 Shrimp with shell on. 21-25 just means there are 21-25 pieces of shrimp in one pound. Serving shrimp with shells on is a long-standing tradition in Hawaiian cuisine. It’s a practice that has been passed down through generations and is often associated with the local culture. Keeping shells on is also less time-consuming than peeling the shrimp beforehand. It’s convenient for beachside or outdoor gatherings.
Sauce
Slowly fry garlic in butter. Using too high of a heat to fry especially with butter will burn the garlic.
