About Crustaceans, shrimp, mixed species, cooked, moist heat
Shrimp are small shellfish with a sweet, delicate flavor and a firm bite, cooked into everything from stir-fries and curries to pasta and the simple shrimp cocktail. They cook in a couple of minutes, which is part of their appeal.
Nutritionally they're lean and light: very high in protein for very few calories, with almost no carbohydrate and little fat, plus good amounts of selenium, vitamin B12 and iodine. Shrimp are relatively high in dietary cholesterol, though for most people that has far less effect on blood cholesterol than saturated fat does.
Quick-cooking and naturally low in calories, shrimp are an easy way to build a light, high-protein meal — just go easy on the butter and batter that often come with them.
