How To Cook: |

1. Wash the shrimp under cold running water. In a small bowl, combine them with the wine and 1 tablespoon of warm water. Let them marinate for 30 minutes. Drain, saving the marinade.
|
2. Remove and discard the leaves of the celery and any stringy stalks. Cut the stalks lengthwise in two, then crosswise into 1-inch pieces.
|
3. In a large glass bowl, combine the reserved shrimp marinade, soy sauce, salt, sugar, vinegar and sesame-seed oil, and stir until the sugar dissolves.
|
4. Add the shrimp and celery, and toss them about until they are coated with the dressing. Chill for 1 hour before serving.
