How do I clean shrimp?
Back

For faster defrosting, take them out of their packaging, and put them in a bowl of cold water. Removal of the intestine: The intestine will not harm us if we do not remove it, but sometimes it is unsightly to be there. Often, in the trade we find them ready cleaned, without the intestine. We remove the heads and shells first. Remove the gut from the spine by slightly tearing the surface and pulling the gut. Dry them well on absorbent paper.
Ideal for saganaki shrimp, shrimp pasta & any shrimp recipe!
