They cost more if they're already deveined. It's not too big a pain to take the veins out. Experiment with just a few of the little fellows - pick up 1/4 pound to put on a salad or two - and see how it goes for you.Kathy Hayniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08128459743012799948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5337476563591469885.post-15623576381152362802010-01-22T21:47:29.543-08:002010-01-22T21:47:29.543-08:00I use to really hate shrimp but I kind of like it ...I use to really hate shrimp but I kind of like it now.

Still, these pictures are both educational and essential (at least they are for me if I'm ever going to try to cook shrimp). But I have a quick question. How long does it usually take for the shrimp to be fully cooked? A few seconds? A few minutes? Half an hour? I am a total shrimp novice. And having a seafood-hater for husband has not helped my lack of seafood cooking knowledge.Katie Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02726633446710833979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5337476563591469885.post-34128875146016312882010-01-21T20:26:03.992-08:002010-01-21T20:26:03.992-08:00Alex, we just ate shrimp tonight!

You're supposed to cook it in parchment, but I cheat on that, too, and cook it in aluminum foil - much less messy - with some herbs and vegies thrown in. Yum! I'll post the recipe on Saturday.Kathy Hayniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08128459743012799948noreply@blogger.com
