This dish reminds me a neighbor who became a very dear friend years ago. He introduced me to dim sum, he would stop by in the evening and say he had made a snack for us to try so we would go and drink tea and eat scallion pancakes (or whatever he had made). I remember them taking us to eat and ordering interesting things I had never tried (like walnut shrimp). So many wonderful memories of a really lovely man!
Those are the absolute best memories. Absolutely and totally. I got married in 1970 and moved to Connecticut. My husband was on submarines and I was from Florida. We rented 1/2 of upper floor of an older home in Norwich... which was about 15 miles from the submarine base in Groton. Out next-door neighbor was a lovely Jewish woman (important to let you know that she was Jewish) who worked for the Norwich newspaper as a reporter. She was a great reporter in her own way but her real specialty was cooking. At least to me anyway. (I was young, what did I know.) So she cooked. And she cooked. And what she introduced us to was beyond description. The only thing I couldn't handle was gefilte fish. Sorry folks. That's disgusting... but as we're talking about being simpler in our thinking and our actions this brought back such memories of Frieda Bruckner. And she grew beautiful beautiful African violets. Her side of the house had the best sunlight for that. That's what she always said. But in her process of teaching me about life, Jewish cooking, and the kindness of others, she really instilled the need for all of us women to get out there and do our part in the world. She worked at a small newspaper as I said, but she was kick butt and took no numbers. And for that I love and miss her...So you get these great memories of the food and the friendship and the education and the whole gestalt. Good deal
My all-time favorite! Never considered using pecans instead of walnuts..GENIUS! I never have walnuts on hand but always have pecans. Making this tomorrow for sure!
The only time I get to eat this is at a Chinese banquet, but now I can it make anytime! (sprinkle toasted sesame on walnuts or pecans while hot, yum!). Thanks Flo!
My mom always used a brown paper bag to bread/flour anything. So I use a large plastic bag, so quick and easy. Plus, the bag can be washed and used again.
Just bought my first air fryer! I am most certainly going to try this recipe! It looks so delicious! Love your videos and Dude is charming and should never be left out of them!! Thanks for sharing with everyone Flo Lum!
I made this last night. It was the first thing I have ever made in my new air fryer. It turned out AMAZING! No need to go to the Chinese restaurant to order the walnut version of this anymore. I like this pecan version way better! Thanks for sharing this one!
I am so excited you did a video on Walnut Shrimp! I remember asking you, maybe a few years ago (??) if you would pretty please do one, even though it involved frying but maybe using the air fryer (this is my husband's favorite dish and I wanted to try and make it at home! So expensive at restaurants!!!! Thank you for sharing your technique. I will definitely give it a try!! Your son's comment was adorable! The highest compliment for a 5 year old to give his mommy chef!
Thanks, Grace! Happy to finally do a video for it. Hope your husband will enjoy it. To this day, my son still rates my meals every night. He’s 13 now. Maybe he’ll become a food critic. LOL
Hi, i just bought an airfryer and discovered your amazing channel, loved the recipes, need to try every single one. Did you stop making air fryer videos? If so, please dont..
Convection ovens have been around for a long time, but many people seem to be missing the 'C'-word from their vocabulary. I started using my Presto unit near the beginning of the '80s - before they corrected the temperature knob for the 75-degree baking temp-reduction. That unit finally expired after more than 30 years of highly-dependable service. Whoever got beyond the vocab issue popularized this great kitchen tool. My objection to the cutesy, round units is that I can't fit two layer-cake pans inside. Fortunately, KitchenAid and others have not abandoned the toaster-oven style. Since I, too, can't be bothered, I usually leave the temp set at 350F and watch the food's progress until I learn to time that recipe. Thanks for the great recipes, tips, and techniques!
I love my KitchenAid toaster oven for many things but very disappointed in the convection aspect of it. The Philips really does a great job circulating the air to really “fry” up the food.
I’ve never heard of this dish and it sounds like it shouldn’t go together, but I’ve never wanted to eat something more 😳 I love candied nuts and love a sweet and salty moment. I’m adding this to my must-make list!
That dish does look great and must be so delicious also and something I would love and Dude seem to be in Heaven and devouring those shrimps and enjoying all of it too.
I LOVE CRISPY. Then with sauce and nuts, all the different textures. AMAZING STUFF. Like Dude, I just tasted them 2 years ago. They are 16.00 per quarter lb.
They were prawns, and maybe there were eight, still skimpy. Also $14.95 not $14. They were really good though. I’m in SF and even out in the Excelsior things are expensive.
If you want to try an alternative, try using xanthan gum. If you don't want the sugar, try truvia. Truvia is a sugar alternative for someone who cannot have sugar in their recipe.
I need to learn how to use chopsticks. I find so many other uses for them but I've never used him for eating. BUT, I have found that chopsticks are really good if you get something stuck in a funnel in the garage. Like dirt because you're planting something. And you can take a chopstick and poke it through the hole. I know that is really bad but I thought it would give you a smile ... these look so delicious...
One place in town has this! With pineapple ,candy nuts,and cherries oh my gosh! The prawns are huge and great ! Just $12.98! I guess I’ll try to order or make some !yeah!
What I do to make candied pecans is lightly drizzle honey over pecans in a deep and toss until nuts are completely covered. Then I sprinkle the coated nuts with super fine sugar and toss until all the nuts are covered with sugar, because of the honey sugar adheres to the nuts beautifully. Using a large strainer, shake the nuts to to remove the excess sugar. Grease a half sheet cookie pan and spray with non-stick spay. Wipe off the grease with paper towel and place the nuts in the sheet in single layer. Bake the nuts in a 200 degree F pre-heated oven and bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, What makes the difference between Flo's procedure and mine is that the pecans gets a nice toasted sweet flavor. When done let cool, nuts won't stick together like Flo's. I admit that my process takes a lot of time but the flavor and texture stand out.
I found a frozen meal kit for this. I wasn't happy with it. The sauce packet lacked something. Like you and Dude, I like Honey walnut shrimp. I'm going to try your recipe. As always, I love your recipes and videos.
Ah... A saltbox woman. So am I. I have one for salt and one for my cracked pepper. And someone asked me how can I tell the difference in the two to not get them confused. Uh, okay.... And I said well, I bought them at Ross. And the one that I use for pepper has one little black wood spot in the wood on the top.. that's why it was not a lot of money. It was five dollars. . And that's how I can tell the difference. And I always set them up left is salt. Right is pepper. So if I ever come into the kitchen drunk I just look for the dot and I know it is pepper. And not the salt. See? Wasn't that easy Peezy. All of that to complement you on your saltboxes. I love those things. Peace.
Lol, I watched another video, they called for 1 1/2 cup of potato starch, why do they do that? It clearly only takes 1/2 cup or so....throw away a cup, NOT. Thank you ❤ you and Dude are awesome. Have a blessed day.
Flo, look up a "Breader Box" on Amazon. There's one by King Kooker that we got last year that is virtually indispensable. You use so much less flour, panko, corn/potato starch. However, the price on it right now is insane. Wait until the price is more reasonable.
What an interesting dish! I wouldn't think to put shrimp and candied nuts together. Do you typically serve it with something like rice or noodles? Or just on it's own, like you did?
This is often served as a part of a 10 course meal in the restaurants. You can serve along multiple dishes, as an appy or main. If it’s your main, serve with rice and a veggie like these ones: ruclips.net/video/JJQD6TBQ_F0/видео.html
I was curious.. adding some crushed red pepper flakes to the nuts after removing it from the heat to give this dish a spicy sweet taste. Flo have you ever done this?
Delicious! I remember eating this dish at large Chinese banquets like weddings or birthday parties. I would substitute the sugar with organic maple syrup though. But I wouldn't know what to substitute condensed milk because i would not use the rest of it after two spoons for the sauce. Flo - what would be a good substitute for condensed milk? Thanks!
I think the condensed milk is the authentic ingredient for this recipe and some sub honey or use both but I personally prefer the flavour of the condensed milk. Not sure what would be a good sub for it.
This is often served as a part of a 10 course meal in the restaurants. You can have it for whichever you would like. If it’s your main, serve with rice and a veggie like these ones: ruclips.net/video/JJQD6TBQ_F0/видео.html
Flo, love you and Dude, but you lost me on the candy nuts, not a fan of nuts, and with fish? aint gonna fly. Still love ya'all be well and eat what ya want :) Bw well and safe; carry on the good work
$28 for a meal at a fancy Chinese restaurant. Oh my god what we can do with $28 cooking at home. I would've felt guilty. It's really bad when you feel guilty eating a meal that cost that kind of money. So I am looking forward to seeing this.
Walnut prawns... pecan shrimp... almost exactly the same, just as delicious! Happy Sunday! 💕

Oh man what a combo. I love shrimp and pecans I am over the moon. Hi Flo, Dude, family and subscribers. 😘
LOL! Thanks, Myrna! 😘
YUM!! I love this dish. Can't wait to get an air fryer and try out this recipe in it! 😋
Not exactly like deep-fried in the restaurant but close enough! By the way, Dude loves what your family is doing on RUclips!
Ahh! Huge fan of both!
Fabulous video. I’m making this on the weekend for sure. I’m so glad I found you. I love your style ❤
My all-time favorite! Never considered using pecans instead of walnuts..GENIUS! I never have walnuts on hand but always have pecans. Making this tomorrow for sure!

Had these take-out the other night. Was $14.00 for six shrimp. I will do this. Thanks guys.
6?? Barely enough for one person
They were prawns, and maybe there were eight, still skimpy. Also $14.95 not $14. They were really good though. I’m in SF and even out in the Excelsior things are expensive.
Wow! Yep... make your own! 🍤🍤🍤

I have to try this. Thank you
I buy 7 oz cans of sweetened condensed milk at my local 99-cent Only store. Great for when you only need a little for a recipe.
Hi, great recipe. Shrimp and prawn are the same. Just depends on where you live. In Australia we call them prawns. 👍👍👍
Oh yeah candied nuts are wonderful, Flo Gotta make caramel corn with nuts. One of my favorite snacks.
OMGAWD YESSSSSSS PLEASE LOOKS SOOOOOOO DELISH LOOOOOOOVE WALNUT SHRIMP
Another great dish!
hi Flo and dude🎉. Great channel.
I also tried psyllium husk.
I had this at sun sui wah!!
One place in town has this! With pineapple ,candy nuts,and cherries oh my gosh! The prawns are huge and great ! Just $12.98!
I guess I’ll try to order or make some !yeah!
Never seen this before. Looks like something I can try to impress the lady with.
It definitely will!
Oh my god this is so delightful! I believe with walnuts would be really delicious, have no idea about pecant
Flo you did such a good job cooking tonight 😄😄. Totally yummo !
🤣
Oh my gosh ... I am so excited to try.
This looks soooo delicious!
Looking delicious yummy nice recipe
I like your new oil sprayer !

Looks really good!
BEAUTIFUL CAT, DELICIOUS SHRIMP RECIPE, LOOOOOOOVE YOUR VIDEOS
Hi thanks for featuring this. I love it - Yoki
Thanks for the suggestion and hope you enjoy it!

Yum. It sound like a thing they have at Panda Express but this just sounds better
🇨🇦 my favourite prawn dish! Very excited to try your recipe.... and your CAT is absolutely beautiful 🤩 what breed is it?
Never too many nuts.
Lol, I watched another video, they called for 1 1/2 cup of potato starch, why do they do that? It clearly only takes 1/2 cup or so....throw away a cup, NOT. Thank you ❤ you and Dude are awesome. Have a blessed day.
Right?! It’s one of my pet peeves. LOL
re: coating the shrimp... drop the shrimp and starch in a plastic (Zip-loc type) bag and _gently_ shake.
You're welcome.
Yes... but I already had them in the bowl and trying to reduce single use plastics.
@@FloLum silicone ziplocks are a thing. Check Amazon. Fully washable and reusable. Great show! Thank you for all your cooking!!!
Yep... I have some of those.
Flo, look up a "Breader Box" on Amazon. There's one by King Kooker that we got last year that is virtually indispensable. You use so much less flour, panko, corn/potato starch. However, the price on it right now is insane. Wait until the price is more reasonable.
Can I put in the fridge unused caramelized walnuts? Thanks!

@@FloLum
Wow, 10 courses! My kinda restaurant!! Lol 😂 Thanks for the link. 😊
They now sell squeeze bottles of condensed milk. No more waste or over eating sweets
Broccoli would be classic!
This seems more like a shrimp dessert . Too many sweet things . That cat is stunning . What kind is it ?
A bengal cat, isn’t he gorgeous!
I was curious.. adding some crushed red pepper flakes to the nuts after removing it from the heat to give this dish a spicy sweet taste. Flo have you ever done this?
I have not, but by all means! This recipe is traditionally not a spicy dish.
Delicious! I remember eating this dish at large Chinese banquets like weddings or birthday parties. I would substitute the sugar with organic maple syrup though. But I wouldn't know what to substitute condensed milk because i would not use the rest of it after two spoons for the sauce. Flo - what would be a good substitute for condensed milk? Thanks!
I’ve seen a lot of recipes using honey.
@@FloLum Honey sounds good too. Would the condensed milk is harder to substitute?
I think the condensed milk is the authentic ingredient for this recipe and some sub honey or use both but I personally prefer the flavour of the condensed milk. Not sure what would be a good sub for it.
You guys should open a restaurant.....
Looks fantastic!
Do you serve it as an appie, or a main course? And if main, what do you serve it with?

Can I use Kewpie mayo?
Of course!
Shrimp are mostly salt water, prawn are mostly found in fresh water
What do you serve with this? Looks yummy!
Dude destroyed me with his "what's wrong with you?" comment about the candied nuts. I can see I need to get busy cooking these recipes!
I just recently saw sweetened condensed milk in a squeeze tube!
🤯 Cool!
Hello new friend
영상잘보고갑니다.
늘 건강하시고 행복하시길 응원합니다.
기회되실때 제영상에 호두나무 키우는법 쉽게깨기 보시러오세요. ~👍
Flo, love you and Dude, but you lost me on the candy nuts, not a fan of nuts, and with fish? aint gonna fly. Still love ya'all be well and eat what ya want :)
Bw well and safe; carry on the good work
Chinese classic - walnut shrimp. Don't need to say more than that. If you haven't had it then your missing out.
$28 for a meal at a fancy Chinese restaurant. Oh my god what we can do with $28 cooking at home. I would've felt guilty. It's really bad when you feel guilty eating a meal that cost that kind of money. So I am looking forward to seeing this.
Can I just cover the nuts with honey 🍯 😍?
Pecans are even better than walnuts imo.......
My darling. You want prawns to be crispy use RICE FLOUR with a little mixture of corn or tapioca flour. Try it with mashed 🍌 banana!!! Yum 😋
dude ,get a close up of the kitty, get the kitty a lickable.
