What it is

How people cook with it
Shrimp are a versatile seafood that can elevate many meals. They cook quickly and absorb flavors beautifully.
- Quick weeknight dinners
- Appetizer platters
- Pasta dishes
- Salad toppings
To prepare these shrimp, first thaw them completely. You can do this by placing them in the refrigerator overnight or by submerging the sealed package in cold water for about 20-30 minutes. Once thawed, pat them dry with paper towels. This step is important for achieving a good sear and preventing them from steaming. You can then sauté them with garlic and butter, add them to stir-fries, grill them, or toss them into salads.
How it differs from similar foods
The 'large' designation refers to the count per pound, meaning fewer shrimp make up a pound compared to smaller varieties. This size offers a more satisfying bite and is less likely to overcook quickly. They are already peeled and deveined, saving significant preparation time compared to raw, uncleaned shrimp.
How to keep the rest
Keep any unused, thawed shrimp refrigerated in an airtight container. They should be cooked within one to two days. Uncooked, frozen shrimp should remain in their original packaging and be stored in the freezer.
