Hi Jason Bourne. Thank you for sharing That's right. Prawn's head give a natural umami taste to the food. Soup will be very tasty without having to use the MSG. 😀😀 Thank you for the comment
Hi Shweta Jadhav, Thank you for the comment. Wonderful! the broth would really help to boost up the flavor indeed. Please let me know how it turn out. Thank you.
Hi Cheng Lin Tay, thank you for the comment 😄 Ohh yes, prawn noodles is a great idea, sounds very delicious! 😄 I have not made the authentic prawn mee (yet!), but here is my home cooked version of prawn noodles soup: th-cam.com/video/Ai0SrlIFOW4/w-d-xo.html Please let me know how yours turns out 😄 Happy cooking! 😄
Thanks so much again for sharing how to make prawn broth. We have the same method here in the Philippines, extract the flavor with a mortar and pestle. Shrimp heads really make the dishes so flavorful so please don’t throw them out away!! 😋😋😋
This looks delicious! Here in Australia I have fresh water crayfish... they have a little tail meat and a big body/head, lots of guts inside that I would usually throw away. Do you think I can use your same method? I just wonder if the stomach/guts will taint the flavour of the stock.
Hi paul John. Yes, it can be done the same method for stock and would be delicious. I recommend to use the stock within a day for seafood stock. Thanks for the comment 😊
Hi o, thank you for the question 😀 I'm not sure myself - the only thing that comes to mind, is the prawns may not have been fresh. Usually prawn stock doesn't smell like raw fish; however, the stock has to be consumed within 1 day. Hope it helps 😀
Hi Kuben Moodliar, Yes, I did not add any seasoning as this is the base stock. Seasoning can be added when cooking the dish i.e. Tom Yum soup or vegetables soup. I hope this helps :) Happy cooking
Hi ZEL Official. For the prawn broth I don't recommend to keep it as it loose the freshness very quickly. If possible, cook it today for today use. Otherwise, if keep in the freezer maybe for a couple of days. Thank you for the question. 😀😀
Hi Pink guy who likes anime. This prawn broth should be cooked and use it within a day. I don't recommend to keep the broth overnight or for a longer period as it can develop the strong shellfish smell and taste won't be good too. Happy cooking 😀😀
Hi, Somjit. When I remove the head from the body much of the orange/pink insides come out as well (the black poo-string goes into the trash bin, of course). I see some of the orange-coloured insides are in the heads when you start with the mortar and pestle, but I still don't know how much of the insides that come out with the removal of the body I should keep for making the stock. Please advise. Thank you!

The prawn broth looks good! Not only I can make noodle soup with this, I might even make Korea stews like kimchi jjigae or tofu jjigae.

Wowww very tasty
Hi Vilma Daguio, thank you for the comment 😄 It's very tasty and flavourful - a good soup base 😄
Hi! Thank you for the recipe. I tried making prawn stock in the past but it smelled way too fishy (kinda like raw fish). Any idea where I went wrong?

How long can the broth last if frozen? Thank you 😊

Do you clean the insides of the prawn heads?
Hi Radish White. I wash them all together. 😀😀
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit hello, usually prawn heads come with prawn poo =D do you also remove it?
Thank you 😊💖
🇮🇳🙏🕉️
Hi paresh prajapati, thank you for the comment 😃
Should the pinkish gooey substance wasjed of from the head?
@ayeshanajeeb6631. It's optional, for me I don't as that where all the nice flavor come from. 😀😀

Hi JB, Yes, if you can save it for the stock that would be good. Thank you for the comment 😀🙏
Hi Somjit, this is the exact same question. My husband had. Thank you for answering it and thank you for the video with the many details!!
This may well fit the bill for my Pescatarian bone broth.
Hi Verte Bow, thank you for the comment 😀 I'm glad that it helps 😀
Why you don't fry them before boiling?
@littlelight1147. Avoid using oil in the soup. Yes, it will be very fragrant if fried before making a stock. Thanks for the comment. 😃😃
I stir fried the head and shell first.
Hi Ram, That's great! 😊 Thank you for sharing 😊😊
Cook the prawn in some oil to extract the prawn oil out …. Cooking like this don’t bring the flavors out
Hi Eric Lim. That Great! Thank you for sharing. 😀😀🙏
