I think my method is simple. As for whether it is elegant or not, it’s up to you to see for yourself 1. Original fresh shrimp 2. Pick one up and see where to start.

3. First, cut off the whiskers and feet, no matter what they are called, jaws, feet, swimming limbs, etc., and cut off the two long whiskers together.

I'm left-handed, right-handed people should look at it the other way around.

4. There is a clear black line on the abdomen of a cleanly trimmed shrimp. This is the abdominal artery of the shrimp and the motor nerve chain connected to it, which is commonly known as shrimp tendon.

Shrimp will bend into a bow shape when heated, which is caused by the shrinkage of shrimp tendons due to heat.

Generally does not need to be removed before cooking.

But when making some special-shaped dishes, such as tempura, you need to pick or cut them to keep the shrimp in a straight shape.

5. Turn over and prepare to deal with the shrimp gun (the long spine).

Here you can vaguely see two black shadows on the head.

6. Cut off the shrimp gun without mercy.

When cutting, try to cut as close to the shell as possible.

I cut it myself and took selfies. In fact, when I cut it, it should be close to the root and going down.

7. After cutting off the shrimp gun, look at it from the front. There is obviously a black lump at the root of the shrimp gun, which is a sandbag.

8. The sandbag is actually the stomach of the shrimp. It is connected to the intestines of the shrimp and is also a place where dirt and evil people gather. The specific location is at the base of the shrimp gun on the head of the shrimp and must be picked out.

9. Use scissors to pick it out. If you are careful when picking, you can take out the shrimp threads (shrimp intestines) perfectly.

10. Look, the stomach and intestines are connected.

11. You can pull it to the bottom and the two dirtiest parts of the shrimp body will be removed together.

Of course, this requires a little more practice, and novices may not be able to do it. It doesn’t matter if the shrimp intestines are not pulled out at this step. Let’s continue reading.

12. Press the shrimp on the drilling board and cut the back of the shrimp with a sharp knife.

Be careful not to press the head to prevent the shrimp yellow from being squeezed out after cutting off the shrimp gun.

13. After opening the sides of the shrimp, it is easy to take out the shrimp threads (shrimp intestines).

Now, you know, the back part is the shrimp intestine. Sometimes the shrimp intestine is white, sometimes it is black. The black part is what the shrimp has not excreted, and the white part is the jejunum. Regardless of whether it is black or white, cooking

They must be picked out beforehand.

If there is no edge, then use a toothpick to pick it out from the back. I forgot to take another picture. After removing the shrimp stomach, pass it through the second section of the back, and it is easy to pick it out.
