I just put them in a colander and run cold water over them for a minute while I separate the shrimp so they aren't sticking together. Then I add the separated shrimp to the pot with the rest of the ingredients. They only take about 5 minutes to cook even if they are frozen. Buy the shrimp already peeled and with their tails off

∙ 15y agoThe best way to freeze shrimp is to freeze them totally submerged in water. A ziptop bag or a container works equally well , but i prefer to use a container due to easy staking in freezer.
Peel and devein each one and rinse well. This removes the intestines of the shrimp and makes it more bacteria free. As stated above, freeze in water or the shrimp may freeze dry and be tough when thawed. When freezing meats or fish, freeze in single serving portions. This way you only thaw out what you need and the frozen meat lasts much longer.

∙ 9y agoThe best way to thaw shrimp is to transfer it from the freezer to the lower part of the refrigerator the day before you wish to use it. If it is not all the thawed, you can finish thawing it in a bowl of cold water. If it takes longer than 30 minutes to finish, you should change the water every 30 minutes.

Can you freeze shrimp thaw it and refreeze it?
No! Fish is a meat that is very perishable, meaning it goes bad quickly. When I buy shrimp I usually plan to eat it that night, and I keep it on ice in the refrigerator. Where we live we don't get fresh shrimp, so it has already been frozen once, and I use it immediately. Shrimp also becomes rubbery.
