Cooking tips
Seafood cocktail is sold in 2 types: raw-frozen and boiled-frozen. It is enough to defrost and reheat boiled ice cream (using a saucepan with water, a frying pan with oil or a microwave oven), raw ice cream must be boiled.
When choosing a seafood cocktail, pay attention to the type of seafood: the pieces should be approximately the same size, without ice fragments. Not only the weight of the cocktail is important, but also the net weight, which determines How long water is added to the seafood before freezing. The smaller the difference between net weight and final weight, the better.
When boiling, the weight of a sea cocktail is halved, so after boiling, in addition to the cocktail, you can add peeled shrimp and squid, it is better to cook them separately.
If the seafood cocktail has a smell, it is recommended to add herbs and celery when cooking, and add garlic sauce when serving.
You don’t need a lot of water for cooking: just enough water to cover the seafood slightly.
Boiled seafood tends to dry out instantly, so it is better to immediately pour it over with oil or sauce.
