Tips & Warnings
  • Fresh shrimp should be used within a couple days, as they are very perishable.
  • If you are using wooden skewers, be sure to soak them in water for one hour prior to use.
  • Shrimp give off an ammonia smell when they go bad. Another sign that the shrimp is not fresh is that they no longer feel firm to the touch.
