don’t want to stir fry them because I don’t want to make a mess with my kitchen.
don’t have an oven, so the easiest way to cook them is afaik boiling them.
Do I add salt and pepper while boiling or AFTER?
Do I peel em before boiling or boil them WITH the shell?
Do I need to boil them if I choose to prepare a soup with leeks and maybe potatoes?
If making a soup, then they will cook in about 5 minutes. So peel and clean and add them at the end.
If you’re adventurous, boil the shells and strain the water for shrimp stock, then make the soup base with your vegetables and then add them at the end since they cook quickly.
I’d recommend adding butter and cream with dill and lemon… or maybe add fish and make a seafood stew with a tomato base.
Good luck!
I’d poach them. Salt the water and get it boiling, turn off the heat and put them in the water until they are just no longer translucent, like 3 minutes depending on how big they are.
Pull them out and season them however.
For a soup just add them at the very end similar to the poaching instructions.
Hi, Would you kindly indulge me and explain your posting pattern. You’ve just asked 4 question in 4 minutes after not asking any questions for 30 days. You’ve also only once commented (looks like you deleted that). When I asked you about that you didn’t respond and you deleted the thread. Then you posted a new question. Now another. Are you OK? I’m reaching out in good faith here, what’s up?
