Shrimp with gluten

Overview

This dish of shrimps with gluten is undoubtedly the most unique in Tianjin cuisine. Nowadays, this dish is called gluten-free everywhere, but this is actually a mistake. In fact, this single character should originally be written as "Du", which should be "Du gluten". "Du" is the cooking method of this dish, which means gulu. The main thing to make this dish is to pour the sauce into the gluten and then thicken the sauce. This is a mispronunciation of homophones.
