Shrimp Preparation

    Prepare the Boiling Liquid

    In a large pot, combine 4 cups of water, the halved lemon, bay leaves, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.

    Cook the Shrimp

    Once the water is boiling, add the large shrimp. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque. Do not overcook.

    Chill the Shrimp

    Remove the shrimp from the pot and transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool for about 5 minutes.
