How to clean shrimp tails

With the development of society, people's demand for transportation has become faster. Seafood, which was originally in coastal areas, has gradually become popular in inland areas. People are using more seafood in their daily lives. Crayfish is a popular food. Crayfish tastes delicious and is cheap, but people think that crayfish processed outside are unhygienic. So, how do you clean shrimp tails?

First, how to clean the shrimp tail ? How to clean crayfish: 1. Cut off most of the head shell, and use scissors to pick out the black and sandy stomach sac from the exposed head and back; 2. Cut off the outer shell of the gills on both sides, and then cut off the whiskers diagonally; 3. Hold the tail shell in the middle of its tail with your hand, and pull it to pull out the black intestines; 4. Make a vertical cut on the back to make it more flavorful (this trick is optional, depending on personal preference); 5. Use a toothbrush under running water to rinse and brush it up and down, left and right. Important reminder: be careful not to rinse off the shrimp roe! Then drain.

Second, crayfish washed with shrimp washing powder often look very clean and have a bright color. However, the corroded crayfish claws can easily fall off. If there are relatively few crayfish claws on the table, the possibility of using shrimp washing powder is relatively high. Therefore, be careful when eating crayfish that have lost their claws. To see whether the crayfish lives in clean water, first look at its back. If it is bright red and clean, then it is fine. Then turn it over and look at the fluff on its abdomen and the hair on its claws. If they are white and neat, then it is basically raised in clean water. After all, crayfish are aquatic animals that feed on the carcasses of rotten animals. Bacteria and toxins will only accumulate more and more in their bodies, so people try to buy crayfish that have just grown up. When purchasing, you should pay attention to the skin color: old lobsters are either black red or red with iron blue, while young and strong lobsters have a natural and healthy luster. Touch the shrimp shell with your hand. The ones that are hard as iron are old, while the ones that are elastic like fingernails are just grown and have changed their shells. Try to buy crayfish with soft shells. Most restaurants serve crawfish cooked to the table. Before eating crayfish, it is best to take a look at the body of the crayfish: if the tail is curled up, it means it is alive before being put into the pot. If the tail is straight, it means it was dead before being put into the pot. Dead crayfish cannot be eaten as they may cause lead poisoning. In addition, the lobster head is easy to absorb heavy metals and bacteria, so it is best to remove the head when eating. When cooking crayfish yourself, it is recommended to soak them in clean water for 2 to 3 hours, then wash them clean and cook them at high temperature before eating. Since crayfish are high in protein, and protein can cause great harm to human health when it rots, it is best to eat the crayfish all at once after it is cooked. Don't eat too much crayfish, because excessive protein intake can easily cause indigestion. [2]

How to clean shrimp tails ? First, clean the body. There is a lot of black dirt hidden on the body of crayfish. Try to scrub it clean with a brush. Don't try to save trouble. If the crayfish is too small, use scissors to remove the hands, feet and claws. The next cut is critical. You must remove the stomach on the head (very dirty), but you cannot remove the yellow paste on the head. The yellow paste is a good thing, don't waste it. Don't cut all the way in with the scissors. Cut halfway in and pull out. In this way, the whole stomach will usually come out (the black sac-like object is the stomach). The next step is to remove the intestines of the crayfish. The method is very simple. Pinch the tail wing in the middle of the tail with your hand and twist it left and right until it breaks, then slowly pull it out. This way the shrimp's intestines will come out.
