Honey Walnut Shrimp

[SarahC]

I was just thinking about my favorite Chinese dish, Honey Walnut Shrimp... do you think shrimp dipped in egg and dredged in pork rinds and fried then coated with sugar free honey and walnuts would work, or would sf syrup be better? I don't have the sugar free honey but have seen it in the store and it seems like it had kind of a high carb count. What you think?

I like gluccomann flour for oriental food.Its $20 a bag but will last you a year.It gives it that thin crispy shell.Check out my bangbang chicken or General TSO's chicken recipe.I like the xylitol honey from netrition.The ones in the store are 100% malitol and will reek havoc with your tummy. This sounds good though.Post a pic when you make it

I will post a picture when I make it. I'm off sweeteners just now, so it may be a while. I did order the sf honey from Netrition with all the other goodies. And I got some NOW Glucomannan Powder. Is that anything like the Gluccomann flour?

Thats it.Remember a little goes a long way!when i use it to thicken sauces and gravy i use 1/8 teaspoon at a time if not your gravy will turn into concrete.My oriental recipes are on the forum.

Thanks, Umpa! I've seen the recipes. When I get a craving for Chinese, I know what to do!
