What it is

How people cook with it
These cooked shrimp are perfect for quick and easy meal additions. They can be incorporated into a variety of dishes without any cooking required.
- Salad topping
- Sandwich filling
- Appetizer dip
- Pasta addition
To use the Weis cooked shrimp, simply open the package. You can add them directly to cold dishes like salads or pasta salads. For warm dishes, add them during the last few minutes of cooking to heat through. Avoid overcooking, as this can make the shrimp tough. They are already fully cooked, so they only need to be warmed.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike raw shrimp, these are already cooked, saving you the time and effort of peeling, deveining, and cooking. This makes them a convenient shortcut for recipes. The pre-cooked nature means they are best added at the end of cooking to prevent them from becoming rubbery.
How to keep the rest
After opening, store any unused shrimp in a sealed container in the refrigerator. It is best to consume them within a few days of opening the package to maintain freshness and quality. Do not refreeze the shrimp after they have been thawed.
