How Suez tiger shrimp 20/30 (qazaz) is cooked

How to choose Suez tiger shrimp 20/30 (qazaz)
Qazaz or azaz, both the same word. The mark of it is that the shrimp is sea-caught off Suez rather than farmed, with a glossy darker shell and a blue tinge to the tail. 20/30 means twenty to thirty pieces to the kilo, the same count as the large. Weighed in the shell.
