Ingredients
- 1 pound Shrimp frozen
- ½ tsp Baking Soda

- Using a vacuum sealer or the water displacement method, add the seasoned shrimp in a single flat layer.
- Once the water bath reaches desired temperature, submerge the bag in the water bath making sure all of the shrimp is under water. You may need to use a weight or heavy kitchen utensil to keep it down. Leave it in the water bath for 25 minutes.

⏲️Best Time & Temperature
- 125-130F - Use this temperature if you are planning to finish the shrimp in a pan or on a grill. This will produce shrimp that is mostly cooked and tender. Sous vide for 25 minutes.
- 135F - Use this temperature if you would like a fully cooked shrimp that has the same texture as a shrimp cocktail. Sous vide for 25 minutes.
