What is the difference between 80 and 120 cold water shrimp?

1. How do you eat cold water shrimp?

1: The simplest way is to thaw them and blanch them in boiling water.

2: Peel and stir-fry with ingredients, preferably fruit and vegetables.

3: Cook them in hot pot.

4: Peel and mix into salads or other cold dressed dishes.

5: Whole shrimp can be coated in breadcrumbs and deep-fried, or simply fried until crisp.

2. How to choose cold water shrimp

Choose a reliable seller to buy cold water shrimp, and check whether the outer packaging is damaged and whether the shelf life is about to expire. Fresh frozen products should be uniform in size, intact in shape and plump in texture.

3. How to store cold water shrimp

Cold water shrimp are cold-water shrimp and are generally sold fresh frozen; simply place them in the freezer compartment of the refrigerator for relatively long-term storage. Note that cold water shrimp that have already been thawed need to be eaten as soon as possible and should not be frozen again.

4. Thawing method

To thaw, take the cold water shrimp out of the refrigerator and let them thaw naturally at room temperature (be sure not to soak them in water, especially not in hot water, because that will cause the shrimp's original fresh flavor to be lost). When the temperature is high in summer, do not thaw them directly at room temperature either; instead, thaw them slowly in a 0~4°C refrigerator compartment, which can preserve the texture and freshness of the cold water shrimp to the greatest extent.
