Cooking prawns is probably one of the quickest easiest things to do in a restaurant, get a hot pan sear on one side for 15 seconds, flip it over, and another 15 seconds, done. This method is very effective, but if you are looking for the best prawns you have ever tried, this is probably not going to get the job done. Prawns are very finicky, in that if you over cook them slightly they are rubber, under cook them, and not quite edible, there is a fine line here where they are absolutely perfect. Now this method I am going to show you isn't exactly the 30 second quick sear, and there is many different stages to the cooking process, I assure you this will yield the absolute best tasting prawn that can be used for hot, or cold applications alike.
Step 1 - Make a court bouillon
The first step will be making a court bouillon. A court bouillon is just an acidulated stock (a stock that has an acid added to it). The acid used to add to the stock is usually citrus, vinegar, or wine, or a combination. I usually like the combination of citrus, and wine together, as it produces a softer, more delicate court bouillon. To find out how to make the prawn stock, you can refer to our earlier blog on how to make a proper white stock here; https://www.caciopepemeals.com/blogs/news/stocks
Along with adding the acid to the stock (here I used white wine, lemon, and orange), I usually add a combination of aromatics that weren't in the original prawn stock, in this case I used coriander seed, and fennel, as it is a nice neutral aromatic combination that can be used in many different cuisines. If I were going to be using the prawns in a more Asian cuisine application, I might have added lemongrass, lime leaves, ginger, and cilantro.
Simmering the court bouillon with your added acids and aromatics for 30 minutes, and then strainer the mix into a clean container, and chill in an ice bath, or into the fridge overnight so the mixture is well chilled.
Step 2 - Cure your prawns
The next step is curing your prawns, basically coating them in equal parts sugar and salt (shell off prawns allows for more even cooking, and more flavour to transfer to the prawn). Curing the prawns gives them a nice plumpness, and bite that you look for in the perfect prawn. Just enough to coat each prawn, toss them with your hands so they get covered, and let sit for 15 minutes, out at room temperature.
Step 3 - Rinse your prawns
Rinse the cure off your prawns gently, using cold water, and set aside for the next step.
Step 4 - Add court bouillon to the prawns
The next step is adding the court bouillon to your prawns. The classic method is bringing the court bouillon up to a boil, pouring overtop of your prawns, and letting them sit for 5 minutes in the bouillon, then checking one for doneness, if perfectly opaque, removed and then chilled in an ice bath so that they do not over cook. We are not going to use this method, as we are going for the perfect prawn, and with this method, it leaves a little bit to human error. Recently we have quite a few of our customers asking what are some good foods to cook sous vide, and how do they go about it, so this right here is for you guys. Place the cured prawns into a bag, (vacuum, ziplock, whatever means you have in your kitchen), pour the chilled court bouillon into the bag with the prawns. Usually about a cup of liquid will do it, enough so that it will cover each prawn. Take the air from your bag, ziplock, and seal bag closed.
Step 5 - Set your circulator to 158 degrees
Step 6 - Cook the prawns for 10-15 minutes
Usually the prawns will be cooked perfectly at 10 minutes, massage the bag a couple of times during cooking to make sure they are cooking evenly.
Step 7 - Transfer to an ice bath
Transfer the bags of prawns to an ice bath, or run under cold water until chilled. Then transfer to the fridge until ready to use. If you are planning on serving the prawns hot, this could be your final step right out of the circulator, or you could also keep them in the fridge, and reheat in a circulator at 125 degrees for 5-10 minutes to bring to temperature when ready to use. If you are using the prawns in a cold application, cut a tiny corner of the bag the prawns are in, and discard the court bouillon, or pour into ice cube trays, freeze, and use for a later use again.
Step 7 - Enjoy your perfectly cooked prawns!
After an attack on my laptop that saw me lose access to my wallet keys and losing $1.2m worth of crypto, I was admitted to the hospital for weeks and if not for the intervention of loved ones, I’m not sure I will be here to tell this story.
A few weeks ago, I was hacked and saw me lose all my digital assets including that belonging to my friend. I was extremely disoriented until a post about crypto recovery popped up on my feed and I saw a similar post about Morphohack Cyber Security, a crypto recovery expert, I contacted them immediately and to my surprise, Morphohack Cyber Security was able to recover my crypto assets and secure my wallet for me. Words can not express how grateful I am for their help, and I’m putting this out there to remind people of the importance of being able to get help and knowledge about crypto recovery and security. If you have lost crypto and think it is impossible to get it back then you need to contact Morphohack Cyber Security, they will convince you otherwise and help you get back your crypto assets.

Cryptominers Net was a platform a friend introduced me to while we were in school. At first glance, it seemed like a great opportunity. They advertised high returns from cryptocurrency mining and positioned themselves as a legitimate investment platform. The idea of making passive income, along with some attractive incentives, made it all very appealing. Feeling confident, I decided to invest a significant amount, hoping to see a good return. Initially, everything seemed to be going well. I saw some small profits, which reassured me that the platform was legitimate. But things took a sudden turn when I tried to withdraw some of my funds. That’s when I realized something wasn’t right. The platform started asking me to invest more money before I could access my original funds. It was a red flag I couldn’t ignore. As I looked deeper, I began to understand that Cryptominers Net was operating as a triangular scheme, a type of setup where they use money from newer investors to pay supposed “profits” to earlier ones. There were no real returns being generated. The illusion of profitability depended entirely on new investments coming in. When I refused to invest more, their response was to cut me off completely. Emails, calls, messages everything was ignored. It became painfully clear that I had been scammed. At this point, I felt completely stuck. I didn’t know what to do or if there was any way to recover what I had lost. Thankfully, my sister, who had been through a similar experience with another platform, shared her story with me. She had worked with a recovery agency called Digital Resolution Services, and they had successfully helped her. Encouraged by her experience, I decided to reach out to them with all the details I had about Cryptominers Net. From the moment I connected with them, they treated my case with professionalism and care. They asked for all the necessary information about my communications with Cryptominers Net, transaction details, and other relevant records and got to work right away. They even took on my sister’s case at the same time. After weeks of consistent effort, they were able to track and recover the money I had lost. This entire experience was incredibly stressful, but I’m grateful for the support and persistence of Digital Resolution Services. Without their help, I wouldn’t have been able to move forward. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s to be cautious with platforms promising quick returns. Scams like Cryptominers Net prey on trust and can be devastating if you’re not careful. For anyone who’s found themselves in a similar situation, don’t lose hope. There are people out there who can help. I can’t guarantee results for everyone, but based on my experience, reaching out to a reputable team like Digital Resolution Services might be worth considering.

I am very grateful for the services of HackMetrix Cyberservices and would like to recommend them for services related to cryptocurrency recovery and other private data. When I realized my trading account had been hacked, I was devastated and my life was ruined. However, while searching for a solution, I stumbled upon an article about Hackmetrix Cyber Services, a cryptocurrency recovery company that has had great success in the past recovering cryptocurrency, lost data, and stolen funds, and has helped countless people recover their stolen assets. I invested all my savings into the crypto bull run, which worked for several weeks until I had to withdraw funds for a medical emergency, at which point I realized that my broker had scammed me out of all my savings, denied me access to my trading account, and insisted that I make further payments before I could get a return on my investment. Hackmetrix CyberServices was able to help me recover all my stolen crypto. You can contact them via
