RE: Dirty Shrimp and Cultural Myths
Oh my, I have a similar concern as well! Especially when the prawns were steamed or stir-fried, the black goo was kinda obvious. My grandparents will definitely remove it.
Haha, what's funny is that my grandparents taught me to remove the goo but eat the shell/tail. #priorities
Oh, it means that you have to eat the shell then only remove the goo while the shrimp is cooked 😂 shell=calcium?
Exactly ;). Actually, come to think of it, I've never Googled whether the shell is a legitimate source of calcium. I assumed my Granddad was just right...
