Growing up, I loved eating shrimp. Every time I go to the market, I always buy some shrimp to satisfy my cravings. Recently, I found out that there are two different sizes of shrimp on the market, one is 2030 size and the other is 3040 size. I'm curious, which of the two shrimps is bigger?I decided to go to the market myself.
When I got to the market, I found a stall selling shrimp. The stall owner told me that there are 20 to 30 shrimp per kilogram in 2030 and 30 to 40 shrimp in 3040 per kilogram. In other words, the shrimp of these two sizes are actually the same size, but the number is different.
I see!I used to think that the 3040 size shrimp would be larger than the 2030 size shrimp, but I didn't expect it to be the same. However, it also made me understand why the two sizes of shrimp** are different.
Now that I know the truth, I decided to buy some 2030 size shrimp to take home. I picked out some live shrimp and asked the stall owner to weigh them for me. A kilogram of 20 to 30 shrimp is just the right amount, and it is more affordable.
Back home, I can't wait to start cooking these delicious shrimp. I cleaned them first and marinated them for a while with seasonings such as shredded ginger, minced garlic, and chili peppers. Next, I put the shrimp in a pan and fry them in oil until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides. Finally, I sprinkle some chopped green onions and coriander, and a delicious stir-fried shrimp dish is ready!
Sitting at the table, I began to taste these delicious shrimps. They have a delicious texture, the meat is full, and the taste is really amazing!I can't help but sigh that the original 2030 size shrimp is the same size as the 3040 size shrimp, but the number is different. Next time I go to the market to buy shrimp, I decided to only buy 2030 size shrimp, which is affordable and delicious!
This experience of buying shrimp has taught me a lot about shrimp. It turns out that the shrimp of different sizes are only different in quantity, but the size is the same. This has made me more aware of the ingredients in the market and has made me enjoy cooking my own food even more. If you're a fan of shrimp as much as I am, head to the market to see which one suits your taste and budget
