1 box 30/40 - 2kg - 60 raw unpeeled prawns £25 in my local seafoods market.
1) First, devein, peel and clean. Remove the thin black “vein and it has a lot of bacteria. Twist to remove the head of the prawn. Peel the shell off the prawn body. Leaving the tails on makes them more attractive. Rinse the prawns in cold, clean running water.
2) The main ingredient in a marinade is to add high alcohol. 40% alcohol can kill off the bacteria. 1-2 tablespoons 40% alcohol, granulated sugar and salt. I recommend marinating for at least 15 minutes in the refrigerator, but not more than 1 hour.
3) Fry the prawns in a non-stick wok, without adding any oil. A perfectly cooked prawns is firm enough to curl. Beautiful orange in colour and they are curled into a nice C shape.
4) I've purchased a food dehydrator machine from Smile Amazon UK, 350W, set the dehydrator temperature at 55/70C and it has been drying for 12-15 hours, depends on the size.
5) Store them airtight in the freezer for longer or keep in the refrigerator for a month. Fresh dried shrimps that are beautiful oranges. They become brown with age and also lose their flavour. The premium quality dried shrimps only 332g in the final product.
