When going to the market, should you choose “straight shrimp” or “curved shrimp”? The difference is huge but few people know. If you don’t know how to choose, it’s easy to buy frozen shrimp. This type of shrimp not only has poor quality meat but also has a strong fishy smell. No matter how you make it, the quality cannot be guaranteed, and the flavor is relatively poor!
When we go to the supermarket or outdoor market to choose shrimp, we should prioritize buying curved shrimp. This is because when shrimp are dead, their body becomes quite loose, no matter how hard you twist them, they will still keep their shape.
In contrast, fresh shrimp naturally bend when they are stimulated by low temperatures. Therefore, when chilled or freshened, they will retain their curved shape.
When buying shrimp, you not only need to pay attention to their curvature, but also need to pay attention to the following 2 points to avoid buying shrimp that have been stored for too long.
Type 1: Shrimp with missing heads and tails
If you notice that the shrimp has lost its head or tail, this is a sign that it has been stored for too long.
If the shrimp head starts to rot and become soft, this type of shrimp is not a good choice. After cooking, it will have a fishy taste and will no longer be fresh.
Type 2: Pink Shrimp Shell
Some shrimp shells may turn pink when they are exposed to high temperatures during transportation. This is usually a sign that they have gone through the aging process, and this type will not retain its flavor well. When choosing shrimp, prioritize buying those with clean shells and no visible signs of discoloration.
