excellent and informative video especially as i have just bought a lb of king prawns and needed to know the best way to peal and de-vein them, happy prawn and pasta for me !!
@goibee Hello! No, its not a problem at all!! We show how to prepare the prawns that way as some people are really put off by the vein, so want to know how to remove it. Sometimes, especially with wild prawns the vein is really thick and full, and it looks a bit unsightly, so for visual appearances can be removed. Hope this helps x
The way I remove the heads, make the vein come out with the head. But I peel the prawn the same way. What I do is hold the prawn right side up, then use my thumb on the bottom side of the head where it connects to the body, then use my thumb to start removing the head from the bottom. As you pull the rest of the head off the vein will slide out.
Good video, easily understandable and really informative. Plus I've learned something useful today. Thanks a bunch. Now it's time for shrimps on the barbie. ^^
