Excuse me, what is prawn?

Prawn is also called prawn (prawn), red prawn, Fujian prawn, prawn and so on. There are different reasons for the origin of these appellations. Because the shell of prawn is thin and transparent, and even yellow and white organs can be clearly seen through the shell, people in Shanghai and other places name it prawn. Shrimp is called "Xia Min" in Fujian, because Fujian is called "Min" for short, and the word "Ming" of shrimp is changed to "Min". Compared with male shrimp, the body color of female shrimp is somewhat different. The female shrimp is slightly brownish blue and the male shrimp is slightly brownish yellow, so fishermen call the female shrimp "green shrimp" and the male shrimp "yellow shrimp". Like other shrimps, protein will denature at high temperature, and astaxanthin will be oxidized to astaxanthin and then turn red, so many diners also call it "red shrimp".
