• Frozen shrimp are a handy and less expensive alternative to fresh. In fact, most "fresh" shrimp have already been frozen and thawed, so buying frozen ones and defrosting them at home results in the same quality. Unpeeled are better than peeled, since the shell helps preserve flavor and texture; look for raw "easy-peel" shrimp, which are already deveined. Thaw shrimp in a resealable plastic bag in a cool-water bath or in the refrigerator if defrosting overnight. Once defrosted, peel and devein them (if necessary).
