[MisterXenocideZero]

very helpful, thanks!

[DoHBirDoG]

whats up with resturants leaving the shit vein in the shrimp ?

[FrowningIke]

@DoHBirDoG You need to take a step up from Long John Silvers!

[DoHBirDoG]

@FrowningIke lol i never been there, but i know what your saying, its different here theres no compitition between restaurants so the food here really sucks unless you make it yourself

[FrowningIke]

@DoHBirDoG Where are you? That's just a basic thing in any half decent restaurant. Deveining is not that important just people get grossed out. If it wasn't for the internet we'd never know and everything would be just fine! ;-)

[DoHBirDoG]

@FrowningIke im in northern california in eureka the produce and meat here is awsome but most of the restaurants are awful there is a few good places to eat

[FrowningIke]

@DoHBirDoG Then this vid was as priceless to you as to me. I'm cooking a Chingri Macher Kofta Curry tonight by Sanjeev Kapoor. As it turns out. My Wife brought me home cooked shrimp for the recipe. Saves me a job I suppose! :-)

[tavaren11]

Thanks. Well done.

[xGoldenAngel18]

i hate when i go to a seafood resturant and i ask the waiter/waitress if the food is deveined and they say no. Im like you're letting people eat shit. thats fucked up.

[billholb1974]

Thank you a buddy just brought me some fresh shrimp he just caught,so this helped a lot!

[nieshaamos]

What about the vein on the inside?

[jamesha175]

a very well produced video

[culorfulkeli]

Thank you ^.^

[YesLewis]

How do I remove the prawn? I like to eat the shit only.

[PurpLeKitteNz619]

[dannoj98]

@YesLewis LOL

[kammhron]

@YesLewis  Hey Lewis, Eat Shit!

[DNRLBL]

taking too long

[MorroccoSurrogate]

This was really useful! Thanks!

[ducksocks]

I can so do this! Thank you!

[BTLemming]

may contain grit.....yeah, rhymes with grit. =)

[Keldorn87]

@BTLemming lmao indeed!

[sweetp4ever22]

Thanks for the video, I had no idea how to do this.

[LaPetiteArtiste]

I always wondered why shrimp was cut in the middle like that sometimes haha

[ImNotYourFriend212]

It's best because you don't wanna eat the **sugar honey iced tea** of a shrimp.

[daydreamdede]

yeah, remove the SHIT!

[shielaluvz2talk]

@daydreamdede AHAHAHAH:D you LOL!

[desigayboi]

you have to revove the black nerve in the middle too? ive heard so. or u get stomach ache ( or is that a myth? )

[kotraquin]

i use the knife to cut the shell and rinse under cold water and everything comes off :)

[OHMYGORDIE]

Thank you!!

[enidlareg15]

i wonder, how do we de-vein a prawn but keep the shell on..jus curious, cos i like my prawn cooked with the shell for better taste, but i can't get the yucky feeling of eating the "vein" off my mind..

[babymac9]

i think that ones inpossible, because the vein is under the flesh and shell, its impossible to remove the vein without taking the shell of,

[MorroccoSurrogate]

@enidlareg15 It's not impossible. Use a sharp knife to cut down the skin-on shrimp and remove the vein as usual. It's how I see shrimp usually prepared at the grocery store.

[vanillahunk]

Awesome video. Saves me the embarrassment of asking friends how to do this. Thanks a bunch.

[buttaflly227]

thanks soo much! Very easy to understand.

[Thrackhamator]

Thanks saved my life! I could do with a sharp

er knife though!

[susieaxym]

great video

[AngKuTI]

Yhanks!!!

[secretagentbob3]

This is great. Question: do you need to devein the "belly" side of the shrimp too?

[slavahonda]

no there is only 1 vain.

 i never remove the vain in small shimps.

[CorneliusSneedley]

No, the intestine is only in the backside. And I never knew shrimp were vain, did you? :)

[mjuad]

Ah...veiled insults concealed by an answer to a question. Glad to see I'm not the only one who values a degree of fluency in their native language....such a command of English is something we can only hope that people will one day learn. It would be quite refreshing, even if only at a middle school level.

[CorneliusSneedley]

Well, perhaps veiled by the thinnest of mists, or the finest of gossamer, but easily revealed by the torch of education.

However, I hold no hope that many will one day learn; over my half-century or so on the planet I have only witnessed a steady decline in language skills. With the exception, of course, of the last decade, in which any idiot with a computer and an internet connection has been able further degrade the language, at, which to me, has become an alarming rate.

[mattarrr]

Awesome, that is exactly what I needed to see. One thing though... isn't it Ebi and not Epi?

[stackdapaper]

No honey its epicurious.

[mattarrr]

While on one hand you did explain what I was asking (the Epi in Epi Techniques) I'm actually not entirely wrong considering 'Ebi' is the japanese word for shrimp... honey.

[chrisminnicks]

if their website were only about shrimp, i guess you'd have some sort of point....sugar

[willzyx1980]

Wow! You are so sophisticated.

I wish I was cool enough to read the Sapporo ad with all the pictures, at a sushi bar while waiting for my dinner. Then I too would know the Japanese word for shrimp.

Then I would get all the ladies, just like mattarrr.

[TNPATL]

This is so helpful. I've never worked with fully fresh shrimp and wondered how to do this.

[bleachcake]

Great tip!
