Your contributions are very good, thanks
I just don't want the shrimp soaked in weight enhancing water before being frozen. I have defrosted pkgs if frozen shrimp and it sat in a puddle of water that I paid the price of shrimp for that water! I don't like paying high steak prices for meat with a marinade!
Thank you, this is very valuable content
From what I've seen on The Discovery Channel they are caught, cleaned & dry-ice deep frozen all on the same ship all within minutes of being pulled up out of the ocean.
In biden's america imho all cuts of meat have gone down hill, I learned by talking to my butcher that no one wants to work in a slaughterhouses & if you ever been downwind & could smell it you know why, that & how high the gov tit pays those that do not work.
BUT shrimp have stayed the same in quality, so I've been buying a lot of shrimp. And when its on sale I cook a set of meals I can freeze as single server batches to free up my nights, & replace the 2lbs bag of colossal w/ one that is on sale. What I make will go over rice, or pasta or easily made into a soup or stew with just a few Ingredients added. Last time I make shrimp tacos by adding cumin & other typical taco stuff to the meal I made & froze, & what I freze has fully cooked shrimp, & the sauce could be eaten as it, & I finish the tomato based sauce, but if I have fried onions, peppers, & mushrooms in the sauce I keep them as crunchy as possible because I don't know how I'm going to use them. I have a new freezer (a year old now) I keep at -8° F (-22° C) & I'd feel 100% safe eating them after a year.
And the defrosted shrimp are not there for you to take home raw, I'd bet they'll can cook them for you in a super fast front-loading pressure cooker, I remember my sister always buying them this way when they were on sale this way & she'd always ask for the worker behind the counter to load them up with Old-Bay… this was always done at no additional price but then again I remember the fruit & vegetable aisle in the supermarkets having shaved ice & tiny little sprinklers keeping the produce fresh, I guess at some point one to many people slipped, fell, & sued.
The frozen shrimp in the box at the Asian market is so much more flavorful
As a former fishmonger, don’t buy fresh shrimp unless you can see or smell the boat that brought those shrimp to shore.
Thanks Dan.
Always ask.
Who are you ?? Why u so cute 😍
This is true of a lot of seafood. Unless you live somewhere you can easily get it caught fresh that day, buying the frozen product is often better.
I finally understand why Americans call prawns "shrimp"… 😁
All of the ones you've got here are pretty tiny (less than 50g). Here in Australia we can get Banana Prawns (20cm/100g Excellent in a Thai coconut milk curry) & Giant Tiger Prawns (25cm/150g wonderful basted with butter & seared on the bbq grill. Great with chilli jam).
He’s really cute. And I don’t see a ring on that finger. 😍
Careful if the package you’re buying is one frozen lump, it may mean that it’s thawed then refrozen. Not good.
Fresh shrimp and frozen shrimp there are worlds apart
I'm 8 hours away from the gulf coast. Don't put it past me to just drive down there, buy some off the boat, and then return with a cooler full.
Unless you are fortunate enough to live on the coast… We can buy them right off the boats! I never realized just what a difference straight out of the water shrimp makes. 🤤🦐❤️
Love how everyone in the comment section somehow knows a shrimp fisherman
Lol, I live near a coast. We buy fresh wild shrimp.
Bag of shrimp.
Warning: may contain shrimp
Are we really this dumb?
🤦🏻♂️
fresh frozen?
All seafood/fish should only be that item. They use those chemicals to keep the seafood/fish plump and full of water. If it does it to their flesh, think about your flesh. Not only do you swell up, but the seafood/fish tastes awful.
Love how Dan shares good info!
It says in the Bible not to eat shrimps 😢
Or you leave them the fck alone.
Did that shrimp on the close up shot have a barnacle?
😮
Excellent information. Thank you!!
Good to know!
Could anybody convince Gordon Ramsey of this? He might call you a wanker–or worse. 😊
Just the number of shrimp I need for that meal? 😂 Good one.
I've always preferred frozen, I don't have to cook all of it at one time…
😀 for ATK and 😔 for this guy still on ATK videos!!! 😢😢😢 Sad ATK
Useful!!
I grow all my own shrimp free range 😂
the stores here all have stpp. Not only is it bad for the shrimp but I have to watch eating phosphates so no shrimp for me
