It's obviously fresh and live shrimp, but why is it fleshy and fishy when cooked? Even some friends' cooked shrimp heads are black! There are two reasons why shrimp hair is black: First, shrimp is exposed to high temperature too much before cooking! Second, shrimp is not fresh when it is bought! (The high temperature here refers to the temperature of the fingers) In fact, if you want to cook the shrimp well, just remember the following three points in the cooking process. The shrimp meat is not only tight but also not fishy! First, wash and cook quickly, and the shrimp head is not black
Many friends are still alive when they buy shrimp, but when they get home, they are busy with other things, and when they clean the shrimp, they wash it repeatedly in order to clean it. In fact, such an approach is absolutely not desirable! Because shrimp can't stand the high temperature, even the temperature of their hands. If you keep your hands in contact with the shrimp, or wash them with clean water for a little longer, the shrimp head will turn black! The correct way is to wash and cook quickly, and the shrimp itself has high requirements for water quality, so rinse it once and wash off the aquatic plants or dust on it! Second, cold water into the pot, salt water to cook
Many friends think that boiling water is good for cooking. In fact, when the shrimp shell turns red, the shrimp meat inside is not ripe, and it is easy to eat bad belly! And if you cook it for a long time, you will cook the shrimp too old, so the taste will be dull! The key smell is still heavy! Therefore, when cooking shrimp, it is "useless" to cook it directly in the pot! The correct way is to put cold water into the pot, and add 2 tablespoons of salt before firing, so that the cooked shrimp is not only fishy, but also delicious and sweet! (The spoon is the spoon for our soup. After adding salt when cooking shrimp, it will not only taste delicious and sweet, but also the shrimp meat will be very tight! ) 3.

After the shrimp is cooked, many friends just put it on the plate and eat it! In fact, the best way to make the shrimp more compact is to cool it again! However, this cold water should be boiled in cold water instead of tap water. Soak the shrimp in it for a while, then eat it after cooling down, and you will find that the shrimp meat is tight and Q-shaped. If it is summer, freeze the cold boiled water into ice water, and then soak the shrimp, the taste will be better! If it's winter, it's cool and white. Fresh shrimps can be stored like this for a year. When eaten, their heads are not dark and their meat is firm, just like fresh shrimps. < P > In the picture, they were bought in September. As we all know, the closer to the end of the year, the more expensive the price! Therefore, prawns, which seem to be relatively cheap now, will be twice as high by the end of the year. How can I store shrimp for a long time? The answer is: use empty mineral water bottles skillfully
Specific methods:
1. Don't wash the shrimp that you bought fresh! Head down and tail up, one by one, into the bottle! Note: the important thing is said three times, so don't wash it! Wash the shrimp and it's over!
2, each bottled fresh shrimp, tighten the lid and quickly put it in the freezing layer of the refrigerator for one day!
3. Take out the frozen shrimp for one day, fill it with cold water, and then screw down the bottle cap and continue to freeze it in the refrigerator. This is a stored shrimp. It was frozen in the refrigerator for the first time. When it was taken out the next day, after the water in the bottle froze, the shrimp was preserved! No matter when you eat it in a year, after you take out the bottle, cut it open with scissors, throw the shrimp with ice cubes directly into the pot, add water and salt and cook it! You can also take it out and defrost it before cooking it. As for the method of cooking shrimp, it is the three points mentioned above!
