Shrimp’s popularity makes it easy to find in almost every grocery store. If you are able to source fresh shrimp from your fishmonger then use those, but frozen shrimp will work just as well. If using fresh shrimp, buy them the day you plan to cook them. Before cooking store fresh shrimp in a large bowl filled with crushed ice to preserve their freshness.
