Still Me Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 for y’all who don’t know...I have a culinary degree...so I KNOW how to cook shrimp... but...this is my issue i think shrimp are beautiful when cooked whole...I mean head and tail.... but I’ve never known how to eat the little fucker...it seems really weird to eat the head...especially with those fuckin whiskers......I’ll eat the tail no problem... and I don’t have a problem eating sweet breads...like the green innards of crab and lobster...or the brain gook that you suck out of a crawfish head (my fave btw)...and for the most part I fear no food...hell I’ll try anything...but those heads man....the heads....

Ginguy Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 I won't eat the heads. I will however use them to make soups, especially shrimp bisque. That sounds good, get some grilled sourdough with it. Yeah.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

André Toulon Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 I've eaten shrimp religiously all my life and I've never seen anyone actually eat the heads.....I've seen them floating in some people's gumbo, but you don't eat them. This is new on me and we use to have huge live shrimp boils all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See I watch all these cooking shows on Netflix...and I’m watching this Korean one right now but it seems the general theme for the shrimp is to eat the head...which I find intriguing yet offputting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the cooking I've been eating recently encourages me to eat the tail so I've gotten more used to it, but sometimes it feels like the fragments of tail get aggressively tough to chew through in spite of my best efforts.
