Directions

1. Place shrimp into a large bowl, sprinkle baking soda and kosher salt and toss to coat. SmellaQue Pro Tip: baking soda can change the pH of shrimp to be more alkaline and creating a better “bouncy” bite versus being more soft.  Salt adds great flavor.

2. Place bowl of shrimp into refrigerator for 15 minutes or more.
