How to choose fresh and delicious shrimp
- You should choose shrimp with a clear outer shell and a distinct fishy smell.
- Fresh shrimp have their tails folded together, a slightly curved body, firm flesh, flexible joints on the shrimp’s body, not falling apart, with the head and body sticking together.
- Do not buy shrimp with spread tails, dark patches or uneven colors on the body, black legs and the body of the shrimp not sticking tightly, as these shrimp are likely dead or have been injected with chemicals.
How to choose fresh and delicious sweet cabbage
- Choose cabbage with bright green color, smooth and glossy leaves, not wilted or with dark spots.
- It should feel heavy in hand, have no strange smell, and the weight of the cabbage should match its size.
- Avoid choosing cabbage that is light green, has dark spots on the stem or leaves, is lighter than its actual size, has a foul smell, or has wilted leaves.
How to quickly and cleanly remove shrimp veins
- Method 1: Count backwards from the tail of the shrimp to the second groove connecting the shrimp shell, pierce with a toothpick and pull the shrimp vein out, and you’re done.
- Method 2: Use a knife/scissors to cut along the body of the shrimp and then pull the vein out.
