How to Cook Shrimp
Shrimp can be purchased either peeled, deveined, cooked, fresh, or frozen. Fresh shrimp is always better but not always an option. Buying cooked shrimp should be reserved as a last resort. Would you buy frozen, precooked steak? Shrimp is prepared in several different ways. Primarily it is boiled lightly in salt water, but shrimp can also be broiled, grilled, pan-fried, deep-fried, and steamed. It's really easy to cook shrimp, but it is also easy to overcook them. Once overcooked, the meat will be very chewy like rubber. Try to avoid that.
