1. When making garlic or cheese shrimp, you can snip open the shell along the back of the shrimp. This allows the flavor to penetrate more easily, but do not peel the shell off.
2. When boiling shrimp, you can add lemon slices to the boiling water. This will make the shrimp meat more fragrant, tastier, and remove any fishy smell.
3. When cooking lobster, use high heat. If you cook it over low heat, the meat will become mushy.
4. Dried shrimp need to be soaked to remove the odor. Therefore, the first soaking water, which will be heavily tainted with the smell, should not be used for cooking. The water from the second soaking can be used for cooking.
