For Your Bento! Lightly-Flavored Stewed Shrimp

1. 1

   (The night before) Without peeling the shrimp, de-vein by pulling the vein through the sections of the shell, rinse, and pat dry.

2. 2

   Boil the ingredients in a pot, leaving on the shells, add the shrimp and simmer for 3 minutes, removing any scum that may rise to the surface (I used an 18 cm pot for 12 shrimp.)

3. 3

   Remove from heat, and let rest in the broth.

4. 4

   Once it has cooled down, chill in the refrigerator overnight.

5. 5

   (The following day) Remove the shells and legs from the shrimp, and pack into your bento.
