How to Select and Prepare Shrimp
By Janice Faulk Duplantis
Among the many varieties of seafood, shrimp ranks as one of America's most favorite. Even people who dislike fish seem to enjoy shrimp and there is an endless number of ways in which shrimp may be prepared. The dense white meat of shrimp has a fresh, mild flavor that combines well with many ingredients. Shrimp is great for dieters as they are very low in fat and calories; however, they contain a greater level of cholesterol than most seafood so that must be taken into consideration if anyone has been advised by their physician to limit their cholesterol intake.
Of the numerous species of shrimp sold worldwide, saltwater shrimp are generally designated as 'cold water' or 'warm water' species. Cold water shrimp are caught in the North Atlantic and northern Pacific waters while warm water shrimp are caught in tropical waters. The majority of warm water shrimp available in the United States are harvested from the waters of the Gulf of Mexico and the South Atlantic. These shrimp are generally classified by the color of the shells (i.e., pink, brown and white shrimp). The differences in appearance and flavor are difficult to distinguish but it is thought that the Gulf white shrimp (although the most expensive) are the most desirable.
