how do you defrost shrimp without making them go bad??

Question

hey yall cooking dinner for my dad and was just wondering how to defrost shrimp??? Thanx for your help

Answer 1

The best thing to do is put them in a bowl in the sink and run cold water over them. You can also put them in a colandar and run water over them. It should not take more than 5 to 10 minutes.

Answer 2

never run warm water on them like juan hombre says, that would be STUPID. the best way is to thaw them under refrigeration and if not run cold water on them submerged in a bowl with the water running, ideally the water should be less than 70 degrees which can be tough in warm areas during the summer. GOOD LUCK
