Tips for cooking shrimps

We like to use jumbo 16/20 size shrimp for most of our recipes, but you could use any size really. Adjust cooking time accordingly.
You can use shrimp with tails on or off. On Eatwell101, we tend to keep ours on for a visual impact as they photograph better ;).
Try to find fresh wild-caught shrimp. Frozen shrimp is good too, but fresh will always have a better flavor.
When buying frozen shrimp, choose those that are already deveined. Their shell is easier to remove once thawed.
Thaw frozen shrimp overnight in the refrigerator; or if you’re in a rush, soak in cold water and change the water every 5 minutes.
