Will be making your scampi 🍤 when the Fabian Shrimp truck from Galveston makes its next stop here. Over angel hair pasta with crusty bread for sopping. Can’t wait! We also enjoy marinating raw shell-on shrimp in Newman’s Own Lime Vinaigrette dressing and grilling over charcoal. Unfortunately, I see that dressing has been discontinued recently. I saw the link in your description for cilantro lime shrimp but I don’t have a membership to access it.

Funny story about shrimp. I had been allergic to shellfish for most of my life, along with a million other food allergies. I eventually grew out of most of them by adolescence, but I never knew if I was good to go on shellfish or not. After getting a skin test that suggested I was good to go, I put my body to the ultimate test--I went to the local Popeyes for a shrimp Po Boy, parked my car in the emergency room parking lot of the local hospital, and ate it there just in case anything bad happened. Happy to report that I have had many years of enjoying shellfish of all kinds since then! Excited to try out some of these recipes!

Also, if you're not going to use the shells immediately, put them in your freezer seafood stock bag. What's that you ask? Have a bag for chicken parts, for beef parts, for seafood, for veggie pieces that go unused. Whenever you have a bag full, put some water on the stove and dump your bag in to make a fresh stock.
@Metoobie

This guy is spot on. I spent my whole youth growing up next to the ocean and if you are not eating the shells, tails and heads you are missing out. At the very least, use them to make a stock and blow your friends away with the most amazing ramen or laksa that they've ever had. ... if you're a real keener, dry or fry those shells out, grind them up with seaweed and sesame seeds to make the best rice seasoning you've ever had. Zero waste.

The only time I've bought shrimp that wasn't frozen or previously frozen is when we lived in Gulfport, Ms. There I was able to buy fresh shrimp off of the boats. They were head on and had been iced but never frozen. I didn't notice a huge taste difference but the cost was so much less. Shrimp became cheaper than chicken. I miss that.

Always enjoy Dan's videos. I got spoiled years ago when living in Florida and my favorite bar had a "pitcher of beer and pound of steamed shrimp" special. The beer was crap, but the shrimp were amazing. No shrimp have tasted that good since. When I was growing up we would have shrimp cocktail for Christmas dinner. That shrimp came in a frozen block, and I remember it as being very good. A few years back I found the same block no-one imo in a Chinese market, and it was amazingly good. That market closed, and I've never seen shrimp like that since.

I modified your broiled/baked shrimp with air frying. I mixed the salt with my very hot tap water and added the frozen easy-peel shrimp. After 15 minutes the shrimp were thawed and brined. I took them out of the brine and put them on paper towels while I wiped out the bowl. In went the oil (olive) and seasoning, then the shrimp. I set the Breville oven to air-fry at 480° F, put a baking sheet under where the shrimp would be to ease cleanup, and when at temp popped the shrimp in for 8 minutes. Super easy, super quick, and super delicious! Next up, scampi.

Ever since someone taught me that hack of using scissors to cut the shrimp shell up its back, I've been using that for all my shrimp peeling even if I'm taking the shells completely off. I dunno if it's all that much of a time-saver, but when I'm doing a whole bunch of them, de-shelling/de-veining in one step like that at least feels a little less tedious! Loved learning the tip about sauteeing the shells to get even more flavor out of them - will be trying that next time.

Surprised that Dan didn't suggest adding baking soda to the water, like with other proteins! I love finding out I've basically been doing things the right way all along from applying ATK principles (shell on cooking, remove shells, brown and extract more flavor)! Another good way is to sous vide at 133 a big batch, chill then freeze. You can add them to finished hot soups and they will reheat in the broth without a second cook!

BEST BIGGEST EVER in a bar restaurant where some shrimp boats pulled right to their dock, apparently a big event, celebration for locals, I had just wandered in, and now all at the bar were able to enjoy the Captains Catch, selecting a big tup of the biggest of the catch, sorted out shrimp I swear were some damn near big as your fist...NEVER saw shrimp that big ..BITES to eat each shrimp. Bar owner was part owner of this shrimp boat & he had this deal hooked up where he'd serve first pick to these locals before stocking the bar & sending off the rest sold to other nearby places....guess they only come in from a trip every few weeks or so hopefully with their poundage limit, so HOW lucky to be stopping in there for a beer not knowing about this, during my month working down there!

Vacuum seal in individual bags with a little salt and baking soda and back into the freezer they go. Whenever I want shrimp they go straight from the freezer into the Sous Vide bath at 135 F for forty minutes et voila, perfectly cooked shrimp. So convenient, easy and almost impossible to under or over cook.

@vincejohnm
@vincejohnm 8 месяцев назад
Good questions. He kind of mucks up the chemistry here a bit. Volatile means that the oils have a high vapor pressure so they evaporate quickly. He says overcooking destroys them but that’s not related to volatility at all. Boiling will only dissolve water soluble flavor compounds. Fat soluble compounds (the volatile ones he speaks of) will most likely “oil out” and float on the surface in oily droplets where some evaporation will occur. The more compound you smell the less that will be left in the pit when you’re finished. Sautéing in oil will dissolve (read capture) those compounds much more efficiently. However, high direct heat could easily decompose those compounds. Maybe some of those decomp products taste great. Maybe some taste burnt. Who knows. Chemistry in a pan is very complicated.
@Lisa608
@Lisa608 8 месяцев назад
Would using an instant pot help to contain the volatile flavors?
@vincejohnm
@vincejohnm 8 месяцев назад
@@Lisa608 maybe? High pressure increases solubility of a gas in a liquid. So volatile flavor molecules will be pushed back into the liquid by force (Henry’s Law). Counterpoint: steam is really good at carrying volatiles away. Think steam distillation. As soon as you open the steam vent -poof- there goes your flavor. As with most cooking, experimenting is really the only way forward. We can armchair chemist this all day and never arrive at the true answer.

Excellent episode. Lots of useful information for the home cook. Particularly I'd love to know more about ribonucleotides as it relates to umami taste. So many people mistakenly believe umami taste is nothing but glutamates but in reality there's more to it. That, or a complete exploration of umami, should be a future episode. And the part where you said certain flavor and aromatic substances are more volatile and actually get lost with longer cooking, that sounds like a very important topic to explore because it applies to so much of cooking and especially all dishes that call for long cooking times like stock and stew. Please consider making a future episode about that too.
