Shrimp is a luxury item in Finland. I tried to buy the tiny little frozen peeled shrimp sold in supermarkets, but they didn’t taste like shrimp at all.
I bought a larger shrimp that was a bit more expensive, and it was barely a shrimp. It was going to be quite small when cooked for a long time, so I decided to make a dish that could be made by quickly boiling water.
Because they are small shrimps, the method of defrosting them is also important. I soaked them in 3% water, the same concentration as seawater, to prevent the water in the meat from leaching out. A little effort goes a long way in making them more delicious.

NOTES
