Ingredients
- yellow bean sprouts
- vinegar
- dried shrimp
Instructions
- Select yellow bean sprouts from the north if available, as they are superior in quality.
- Prepare the sprouts by one of two methods:

- Method 2: Braise with dried shrimp.
- Serve immediately upon cooking. If allowed to sit, the color and flavor will both deteriorate.
