What is Jumbo cooked shrimp?
Jumbo cooked shrimp are large shrimp that have been boiled or steamed before sale, rather than a dish tied to one particular region. Their flesh is mildly sweet, tender and pleasantly firm. They’re commonly served chilled in salads or with a dipping sauce, or added to warm dishes; across English-speaking kitchens, they also work well in tacos, pasta and seafood platters. Since they’re already cooked, warm them only briefly so they don’t turn tough.
They’re a protein-rich, very low-carbohydrate choice: 100 g provides 24 g of protein. Pair them with crunchy vegetables and citrus for a light meal, or add whole grains for a more substantial plate.
