After catching, the shrimps are frozen immediately, or after boiling. Manufacturers boil the delicacy for several reasons:

  1. seafood spoils quickly, and high temperatures are more effective than cold at destroying bacteria;
  2. boiled shrimp is easier to sort into packs, since the whole shrimp briquette is frozen;
  3. raw shrimp look ugly with stains and mucus. Cooking makes the product attractive;
  4. boiled product saves the consumer’s time. The delicacy just needs to be thawed and reheated.

With the eternal lack of time, the working consumer will prefer ready-made boiled shrimp. Also, this is often used by cafes and restaurants to place an order at the client’s table as quickly as possible.

The curved tail of the shrimp signals the quality of the product. This shrimp was boiled almost immediately after catching. She was alive and fresh.
