  • Peeling cooked shrimps (called prawns in Australia) is easy. There is a simple three step method (four steps if you remove the vein from the spine). Watch my video for all the details.
    This simple three step method was shown to me by my father when I was a boy. Today, I was showing my kids the same method to peel prawns and realised that this would make a great video. Enjoy!!

    I can peel these prawns easily. What I find much harder is peeling their much smaller cousins we call brown shrimp. I love the taste of these, but it takes a great deal of patience to peel enough for a mouthful.

    instead of using your fingernail to deshell the shrimp you can grab the legs and take them off to let the shell free, then peeling the shell off

    Lets put the record straight for our American friends... Prawns are the larger of the two Crustaceans, whereas Shrimp are their smaller cousins. If you want to go all scientific, then Dendrobranchiata is a suborder of decapods, commonly known as prawns, where there are around 500+ different species. Prawns have three pairs of claw-like legs, while shrimp have only one pair ( Pleocyemata) and are considerably smaller. I hope this clears it up. And the Aussies are correct in this case calling them Prawns.
