This was, in my opinion was one of the most concise instructional Shrimp video's yet, for me anyway. Much of it I've heard before or similar, but after all the video's and judging by the amount of repetition of recipe's I think I'll try this method in about an hour. I have to purchase a digital kitchen timer, seems to be a great help.
The thing about good produce is that it tastes good without seasoning. Many people seem to never actually taste the real flavor of food. Seasoning can be added, but in many cases, food tastes great without it. I recoil at the addition of butter to vegetables, for example. The shrimp we get in Boston are hugely flavorful simply done. I have many memories also of buying cooked shrimp, shell on, in Australia and the taste was amazing. Good memories of eating shrimp, shelling them as you go, with fresh buttered bread. Of course, really great bread can also be good without butter. Seasoning also in many cases brings in added calories which you can avoid if the original taste is great.
Those are yankee shrimp. If you go up north that's all you will get. We were in Detroit for 2 months and almost starved. Only good food you could get was Poppye's chicken.
They can be used in multiple ways. Just eating with fresh bread is great. You can chop them into smaller pieces and add them to salads, soups, sandwiches, ... Lots of ways to proceed.
No. That's a personal choice. In my opinion, it makes no difference. They taste great without it. One thing to keep in mind is that you can also get used to less salt by gradually reducing it over time. Makes for a healthier life style.
You can add any seasoning you like. Everyone's taste is different. They taste great to me. Some like added salt. But the point of the video is to show how to cook them, which is very simple. Also, cooking shrimp just defrosted gets a good result. If you buy defrosted shrimp from a supermarket counter, my experience has often been that they taste like cardboard.
Tried this the other day an the shrimp came out perfect! I will be doing it this way from now on. Thanks for the great video!
Great. It is wonderfully simple. Happy to help.

Great video thank you !!
I'd like to thank the good lord for making Southeast Louisiana my home. No seasoning. My heart weeps.

Thanks for the video, it looks like those were already devained with the shells still on.
Yes
Only 3 minutes? Are you sure? With the shell on? I thought you have to cook it longer with the shell on.
Just 3 minutes. And its best with the shell on to keep the most flavor.
thanks and what did you do with them

No salt needed?

Twice as much water would be helpful imho
What the hell? Not one bit of seasoning. No way this can taste good.

This is best for ceviche and dishes that have overwhelming flavors
Cookaburra Fair enough. I did like to learn how you cook the shrimp. Thanks.
@@628robair All set.
What! No seasoning?
To your taste. Build on this.
This is not how you boil shrimp you have to add seasoning come to south Louisiana and learn how
I would suggest you go further south and try Australia. Taste varies. This is simple, flavorful. With good shrimp, you don't need seasoning.
