Nutritional values
Shrimps have a thick portion of high quality protein and at the same time offer pleasingly little fat. Doctors also praise the high iodine content. This trace element is indispensable for the proper functioning of the thyroid gland, but is still in short supply here in Germany.
Shrimps are extremely sensitive and must be cooled very well. Always consume fresh or thawed shrimp as quickly as possible and ensure that the cold chain between purchasing and preparation is not interrupted as much as possible (take a cool bag with you).
