Steps

Part 1 of 3: Thawing shrimp

1. 

   Thaw shrimp in the refrigerator overnight if possible. If steamed shrimp are frozen, it is best to remove them from the freezer and keep them in the refrigerator. The shrimp will thaw overnight and the next morning you'll be able to reheat. This is usually the most effective, so thaw the shrimp in the refrigerator whenever possible.

2. 

   
   
   Thaw the shrimp in cold water for about 15 minutes. If you do not have time to defrost in the refrigerator overnight, you can put the shrimp in a bowl of cold water, place it in the sink and turn on cool running water to run it in a stream. Leave in the sink for about 15 minutes for the shrimp to thaw.

3. 

   Draw black thread on shrimp back. Most cooked steamed shrimp have the black thread removed, but if you still see the black thread along the spine, cut it through the shell on the back of the shrimp, then gently pull it out with scissors. . advertisement

   Steamed seasoned shrimp on the stove. If the shrimp are seasoned, you should steam them to preserve the flavor of the shrimp. Fill the pot with water and place the steamer or basket into the pot. Put the shrimp in a basket or basket, then place the pot on the stove and boil. Steamed until shrimp fragrant.
   • Avoid excess shrimp in the steamer and make sure the shrimp do not touch the water.
