2. Generally speaking, June is the dividing line every year. Before June, the shrimp with skin of female skin is selected. There are many seeds in the shrimp and it tastes delicious. After June, the seeds of the shrimp with skin of male skin are less, but the meat of the shrimp with skin of male skin is fuller. Therefore, the shrimp with skin of male skin is eaten after June.

4. Look at the shrimp head. If the shrimp head is very weak and looks like it can't fall off, then don't buy it. It's definitely not fresh.
5. If it's a high-quality fresh skin shrimp, the meat is very strong.
