About Crustaceans, shrimp, mixed species, cooked, breaded and fried

Shrimp are small, sweet-tasting shellfish prized around the world as one of the most popular types of seafood. These slender crustaceans are caught wild or raised on farms in both saltwater and freshwater, and are sold fresh or frozen, raw or cooked, shell-on or peeled, and graded by count size from small salad shrimp to jumbo. Shrimp are a lean source of high-quality protein, low in calories and fat while providing selenium, vitamin B12, and iodine; they do contain dietary cholesterol but are low in saturated fat.

They cook in just a few minutes, turning from gray and translucent to pink and opaque as the natural pigment astaxanthin develops, and are wonderfully versatile - boiled for shrimp cocktail, sauteed in garlic butter as scampi, grilled on skewers, breaded and fried, or stirred into pasta, stir-fries, gumbo, and tacos. Peeling and deveining before cooking is common, and larger shrimp are often labeled prawns.

Because shrimp are a common shellfish allergen, take care when serving, and above all avoid overcooking them, or they quickly turn tough and rubbery.
