When cooking shrimp at home, most people will only take the meat part. Meanwhile, the shrimp shells and heads are set aside and discarded. Not without reason, because the skin and head are not delicious, especially since the sharp texture makes it annoying when chewing.

It's not surprising that this part is often considered useless waste. But did you know that shrimp shells and heads can be used to make something delicious? Especially if it's not made into a broth paste. The owner of the Instagram account @mariskatracy shares a simple way to make it through his video post.

"It can be used as a substitute for micin, pour 1 teaspoon of shrimp stock paste for stir-fries, soupy foods and so on. It has a really umami taste," he said.

Apart from making food delicious, this process will also help reduce the problem of food waste. The account owner explained that there was a study that revealed that 61% of food waste came from households. Therefore, it is important to process leftover food ingredients that can still be processed, such as shrimp shells and heads.

Apart from that, the sharp texture of the shrimp skin and head will also be annoying and can injure the feet and hands of scavengers.

"The skin and head are thrown away, because not everyone likes the sharp texture. It ends up becoming food waste and can damage the environment. The sharp texture can also injure the feet and hands of scavengers."

"Instead of turning into trash, let's process the shrimp shells and heads into Shrimp Stock Paste. It could be a substitute for micin or MSG. It will definitely make the dish naturally tasty," he wrote, quoted by BrilioFood from the Instagram account @mariskatracy, Friday (12/7).
