Cooking skills of shrimp
1, shrimp cooked in cold water easily loses its flavor. Because the protein content of prawn itself is very high, and protein itself is not heat-resistant, directly cooking prawn in cold water is easy to lead to bland taste, and it is not delicious without Q-bomb.
2. Boiling shrimp in cold water is easy to destroy nutrition. Because protein in shrimp meat is not heat-resistant, and it is easy to produce enzymes when cooked for a long time, and enzymes will consume some nutrients at the same time, so cooking shrimp in cold water will destroy some nutrients in shrimp meat, leading to nutrient waste.
