These crayfish were brought to us at that time, and everyone thought they were lobsters in the sea, but they were smaller. Because lobsters are more expensive in everyone's impression, his crayfish have been booked by many restaurants! Here I will give you a conclusion first: the yellow shrimp in the head of crayfish is edible, but it is best not to eat it, because there are still many parts in the head that will affect our health. Especially for some pregnant women and the infirm, don't eat shrimp yellow.
It is also the easiest place to accumulate toxins and germs. If eaten improperly, it is likely to cause allergies or acute gastroenteritis, and in severe cases, it may also lead to paragonimiasis, so try not to eat the head of crayfish, let alone eat it raw. Generally, when eating crayfish, in the process of cleaning, first cut the area near the head and eyes with scissors, and then remove the excrement, stomach organs and shrimp gills inside. Shrimp yellow is usually reserved.
First of all, shrimp yellow is not equal to shrimp eggs. We generally think that the shrimp yellow is actually the liver and pancreas of crayfish, which looks like shrimp eggs. The actual shrimp eggs are only found in the mother shrimp of 8- 1 1 month. Often located under the mother's liver, it develops from the ovary. If you want to clean it with a brush, you can still eat it. If you eat in a food stall outside, I suggest you don't eat it, because they just clean the surface of shrimp shells casually.
