Home›Dishes›Main Ingredient›ShrimpIngredientShrimpFinfish and Shellfish ProductsReference and ClassificationVerifiedA shrimp is a common name typically used for crustaceans with an elongated body and a primarily swimming mode of locomotion, usually referring to decapods in one of two major groupings, though some crustaceans outside those groups are also called shrimp. Under a broader definition the term can be synonymous with prawn, covering stalk-eyed swimming crustaceans with long, narrow, muscular tails, long antennae and slender, branched legs, which swim forward by paddling the swimmerets on the underside of their abdomens, though their escape response is typically a rapid series of tail flicks that drive them backward.FactsShrimpConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsClassificationAllergenWell-attestedCrustaceans 1ShrimpFilter Results9 entriesDish FamilyAllAmerican Regional Sandwiches (1)East Asian Noodles and Dumplings (2)Latin American and Caribbean Stews, Braises and Sauced Dishes (1)North American Stews, Braises and Sauced Dishes (1)Raw and Cured Fish Dishes (2)Southeast Asian Stews, Braises and Sauced Dishes (1)Wraps, Burritos and Tacos (1)CuisineAllBurmese Cuisine (1)Chinese Cuisine (1)Filipino Cuisine (1)Indonesian Cuisine (1)Louisiana Creole Cuisine (2)Malaysian Cuisine (1)Mexican Cuisine (2)Taiwanese Cuisine (1)Vietnamese Cuisine (2)Era (Origin Period)All-50 (1)1929 (1)TraditionAllChristmas Feast Traditions (1)Lenten Fasting Foods (1)Street Food Culture (1)Format/TypeAllAmerican Regional Sandwiches (1)East Asian Noodles and Dumplings (2)Latin American and Caribbean Stews, Braises and Sauced Dishes (1)North American Stews, Braises and Sauced Dishes (1)Raw and Cured Fish Dishes (2)Southeast Asian Stews, Braises and Sauced Dishes (1)Wraps, Burritos and Tacos (1)CourseAllMain Course (2)Snack or Street Food (1)Dietary SuitabilityAllContains Fish or Shellfish (6)Contains Meat or Poultry (1)Origin RegionAllChina (2)France (1)Mexico (2)Southeast Asia (1)Taiwan (1)United States (2)Vietnam (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 9AguachileShrimpDrunken shrimpShrimpGoi CuonShrimpPo' BoyShrimpRomeritosShrimpShrimp creoleShrimpShrimp CurryShrimpTàⁿ-á-mīShrimpWontonShrimpConnectionsCarries AllergenCrustaceans, Ingredients Well-attested Used ByAguachile, Dishes Well-attested Source Aguachile (Wikipedia)Drunken shrimp, Dishes Well-attested Source Drunken shrimp (Wikipedia)Goi Cuon, Dishes Well-attested Source Goi Cuon (Wikipedia)tier 3Louisiana Creole Cuisine, Cuisines Well-attested Source Louisiana Creole Cuisine (Wikipedia)Po' Boy, Dishes Well-attested Source Po' boy - WikipediaRomeritos, Dishes Well-attested Source Romeritos (Wikipedia)Shrimp creole, Dishes Well-attested Source Shrimp creole (Wikipedia)Shrimp Curry, Dishes Well-attested Source Shrimp curry (Wikipedia)Tàⁿ-á-mī, Dishes Well-attested Source Tàⁿ-á-mī (Wikipedia)Wonton, Dishes Well-attested Source Wonton, WikipediaSources1.
