Critical Success Points

  • Blanch the asparagus without overcooking to retain crunch.
  • Cook the shrimp just long enough to keep them juicy.
  • Wrap the cheese around the asparagus without tearing it.

Safety Warnings

  • Be careful of boiling water splashes when blanching the asparagus.
  • Cook the shrimp to a safe temperature (≥ 63°C) to avoid any risk of food‑borne illness.
