Like seafood products such as flower armor, the first step for crayfish to get home is to let it discharge all the dirty things in its body. Generally speaking, the crayfish are washed several times with clear water to wash off the dirty things on the surface, then put into a basin, add clear water, and pour in an appropriate amount of edible salt and white vinegar. After soaking in it for 30 minutes, the crayfish will spit out the dirty things themselves.
When the crawfish's dirty things are vomited clean by ourselves, we have to wear leather gloves and pick up a small brush to constantly scrub its abdomen and the roots of its claws, so as to ensure that the dirty things inside are washed away. Put clear water in the basin and wash the crayfish constantly. When the water in the basin no longer becomes turbid, it proves that this step has been completed. Now many restaurants and chefs will wash crayfish in this way, and the effect is obvious.
Cut off the head of the crayfish after washing, but you can't cut it directly. Just cut a hole diagonally with scissors. After cutting the incision, you will see black internal organs inside. This thing is not edible, just clean it up.
After removing the entrails of crayfish, the shrimp line is processed. We put our tail in the middle of crayfish and rotate it for half a circle, and then we can easily pull out the shrimp line by pulling it directly, which is very convenient and fast. This is also an important trick when washing crayfish. There is a lot of digested food in the shrimp line of crayfish, which is very dirty and basically inedible.
Although the shrimp line and internal organs have been removed, there are shrimp gills on the head, which is the most difficult to deal with, but it will become very easy to master the trick. Peel off the shell of the crayfish head, then peel it down along the cheeks on both sides, and the shrimp cheeks will be easily removed. Most people don't know this little secret, but it's actually very simple, which can make crayfish cleaner and eat with confidence.
You know, there are many parasites in shrimp gills. If it is not removed, it will taste unclean and unsanitary. Only by making sure that the crayfish you know is the cleanest will you feel at ease. Most people like delicious food, but they don't know how to make it. If they just want to enjoy it without working hard, it is obviously impossible.
Making crayfish is a very complicated step, but as long as you learn the skills, you can easily do it, and you will also contribute a unique food to yourself. After all, the things you make are always very delicious.
