Shrimp, fresh, frozen or canned 



For certain of the shrimp dishes it is 

 preferable to use raw headless shrimp while 

 in many others cooked and peeled shrimp is 

 used. For these latter, twice the recipe 

 weight should be used if starting with raw 

 shrimp. That is, the loss in cooking, 

 peeling and cleaning is about 50' percent. 

 "Cooked shrimp" as used in this section 

 means cooked, peeled and cleaned shrimp.
