Mr. Crab Zipper Tool

This simple little tool is worth a mention because it makes shelling and deveining shrimp so much faster and easier to do. I bought this at Sur La Table for about $3. and it's gotten a lot of use in my kitchen since then. Here's how to use it...
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Simply tuck the forked end up under the shell, going towards the tail, catching the "vein" as you're doing so, and you'll find the legs come off pretty easily too, at the same time. What a time saver!
