Cooking Tips

  • Use low-moisture mozzarella for the best melt and texture.
  • Do not overcook the shrimp before baking, as they will continue cooking in the oven.
  • Pricking the dough helps prevent large bubbles from forming during baking.
  • For a crispier crust, pre-bake the dough for 5 minutes before adding toppings.
  • Freshly grated mozzarella provides better flavor and melting performance than pre-shredded cheese.

Serving Suggestions

  • Serve it with steamed rice when you want a simple Chinese home-cooked meal.
  • Pair it with one vegetable dish and one soup or tofu dish for a balanced Chinese meal.
