Extra Tips for the Scampi in Jar Cooking Recipe

To avoid temperature changes in the glass, I recommend browning the garlic in a small bowl and then distributing it in the jar.

*The cooking of just 8 minutes is necessary to avoid ruining the scampi meat, this reduces the storage times. Because the vacuum formed in the jar is not optimal for long storage.

Prawns in Jar Cooking

Instead of scampi, you can use frozen prawns. If desired, you can season the prawns with lemon zest, garlic, parsley, oil, and a touch of white wine.
