How to Make Baked Shrimp Toasts

  1. Mince 2 cloves garlic and 1-inch piece of ginger. In an 8- to 9-inch heavy skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger; cook, stirring, until softened and fragrant (about 1 minute).
  2. Add 2 tablespoons mirin, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Simmer, stirring constantly, for 15 seconds.
  3. Transfer the marinade to a bowl and let it cool to room temperature.
  4. Add 1 pound of peeled and deveined shrimp and 1/4 cup chopped cilantro to the marinade. Toss to coat. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour (longer is better!).
  5. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Position oven rack in the upper third of the oven.
  6. Using a serrated knife, carefully remove the crust from a 1-pound loaf of bread. Cut a 3/8-inch thick slice from the bottom of the loaf, and trim any remaining crust from the sides.
  7. Place the bread slice on a baking sheet. Bake, flipping halfway through, until dry but not browned (about 8 minutes total).
  8. Remove the bread from the oven but leave it on the baking sheet.
  9. Immediately increase oven temperature to 475°F (245°C).
  10. Spread the shrimp mixture evenly and thickly over the top of the hot toast, covering the entire surface.
  11. Once the oven reaches 475°F (245°C), bake the shrimp toast until the topping is cooked through and slightly golden brown (12-15 minutes).
  12. Carefully transfer the toast to a wire rack using a large spatula and let it cool for 5 minutes.
  13. Transfer the cooled toast to a cutting board. Halve the toast crosswise, then cut each half lengthwise into fourths (8 strips total).
  14. Cut each strip into 4 pieces.
  15. Serve the toasts warm or at room temperature.
  16. (Optional) Add salt to the shrimp mixture before baking if desired.
