![]() It doesn’t make much of a difference, but we all have our preferences. This mostly comes down to personal preference though, so you can either remove the crust or leave them on. Many recipes call for the crust to be removed from the bread before adding the paste, including ours! I really like the evenness of the bread with the crusts removed when toasted and often find leaving the crust on, makes the dish slightly more about the bread than the shrimp, which I don’t like. If you’re more of a purest you can definitely blitz the shrimp mixture in the food processor until it is indeed a smooth paste! Should the Crust be On or Off? I really like the tiny bits of texture you get from the water chestnuts as well as the bits of shrimp. This is also why I like adding water chestnuts to the paste mixture. I like biting into the little triangles and feeling some of the shrimp texture. Our version uses a shrimp paste, but with a bit of texture. This will help the paste spread and adhere onto the bread nicely. The topping is called shrimp paste for a reason, as it should really be a paste.
