Hello,

I've eaten a couple of dishes where the shrimps are thin and twisted -
almost like spiral pasta. A cool effect, and great for "bite size"
shrimp in pasta. Does anyone know how the restaurant does this?

I'm guessing they may just split the shrimp straight through (like
butterflying, but cutting the shrimp in half) and it will do this on
its own.

ANy thoughts?

it would depend on the size of the shrimp. technically speaking shrimp
are sold and grouped into sizes such as 16/20 or 90/110. deciphered all
this means is how many shrimp on average per pound, it would mean 16 to
20 per pound etc...of course the smaller shrimp (as others) have lay
persons names as well. ie the 90/110 are also considered "salad shrimp"

Except for the word shrimp, what does this have to do with the question
at hand?

its pretty self explanatory, the size if the shrimp will make a
difference, as the smaller shrimp will not "spiral" but they curl round.
and going back through my sent folder i see that somehow the other
part of my post must have got deleted b4 i sent it(i have been having
issues with thunderbird, no not thew wine the email reader). i also said
that it may been frozen like that as well. sorry to confuse you mr

I think I understand what you mean by "spiral shirmp" and yes, they're
"created" by splitting the shrimp lengthwise as you would do for
butterflying. When they hit heat they kind of spiral up. It also is nice
when you don't want chunks of shrimp but nice bigger pieces that you can see
but you can't afford (or don't want to) to use bigger shrimp and more of
them.

I hope that made some sort of sense....
