Brilio.net - Shrimp tails sometimes have to be separated from the meat when you want to eat them. The reason is, the texture of the shrimp tail is quite tough and difficult to swallow. Usually, people just pull the shrimp tail off. In fact, this can also cause the remaining meat at the end of the shrimp to be thrown away.
This was also explained by a man on the TikTok account @derek_lieu. In his upload, he explained that not many people have a special trick for removing shrimp tails so as not to waste the meat.
"I looked up on TikTok and YouTube, and everyone just snaps off the tail or does it with scissors or whatever," he said, as quoted by BrilioFood from TikTok @derek_lieu on Monday (19/8).

Before trying the trick, first pay attention to the tail of the shrimp . Generally, there are two parts to the shrimp tail, namely the part that tends to be large and the part that tends to be small. Well, the small part is sharper.
After observing, you can set aside the large part of the shrimp tail first. Pinch and pull the shrimp tail until it comes off the shrimp.
