Children Loved These Medium Sized Raw Shrimp For Dinner
Yesterday the kids and I went wet market shopping at Malabon City and I chanced upon some ocean shrimp. Super expensive. I skipped it first, then went back and gave in. I blew off some money, 500 pesos per kilo for the shrimp, I just bought 1 kilo.
Back home I warned everybody that no one was cooking my shrimp. It’s far too expensive so it deserves only to be eaten raw. At lunch my father in law had 1 whole raw shrimp dipped some vinegar and said it was excellent. My sister in law had 2 whole raw shrimp and found it to be good. I ate some 5 or 6 of these and found them filling.
By dinner time I was having this shrimp again. Then I did my daddy voice and had the kids taste 1 bite each of the raw shrimp dipped in some vinegar. They were hooked. They wanted more and between us 4 we finished off the rest of the 1 kilo of shrimp.
In the morning I asked my kids if they itched, none of them did. I was expecting my 7 year old boy to itch, but I guess these shrimp were truly ocean fresh, they were much cleaner than the usual aqua cultured variety.
