All products for cooking are absolutely available. Separately, I would like to say a few words about shrimp. They should be given close attention, because the taste of the salad depends on the quality of this ingredient. It is better to purchase raw, unpeeled shrimp, after cooking they will give the dish an unimaginable taste. But here it should be borne in mind that most of the weight of the shrimp will go to the shell. If you bought shrimp in a frozen boiled form of pink color, then such seafood has already been cooked. Therefore, for defrosting, it is enough just to pour boiling water over them. With such shrimps, the cooking time will take no more than 15 minutes.

Step-by-step preparation of a salad with shrimps and Chinese cabbage, a recipe with a photo:
1. Prepare the shrimp first. You do not need to cook them, just pour boiling water over them and steam them under the lid.
2. Remove the required number of leaves from the head of cabbage, wash and dry with a paper towel. Cut them into thin strips. Do not wash a whole head of cabbage under running water unless you intend to use it right away. Otherwise, the leaves will become frayed, wither and will not crunch.
3. Send the cabbage and salad bowl.
4. Drain the hot water from the shrimp, cut off the head and remove the shell.
5. Send the shrimps to the salad bowl with the cabbage. Season the food with a pinch of salt, season with vegetable oil and stir. For a more sophisticated dressing, you can use olive oil or corn oil. Also, shrimps are in good contact with various sauces with mustard, vinegar and soy sauce.
