Steps

1

Insert a bamboo skewer through the belly side of the shrimp. Try to insert it as close to the outer shell as possible, otherwise it'll be difficult to pull out later.
2

Combine sake, salt, and sushi vinegar into a pot of boiling water and cook the shrimp.
3

Once the shrimp is boiled, leave the skewer on the shrimp then chill. (If you remove the bamboo skewer while the shrimp's still hot, it'll curl up so be careful.)
4

Peel the shell up to the tail.
5

Cut along the middle to butterfly the shrimp.
6

Cut off the edge for a clean finish.
7

Shape the sushi rice, add wasabi, then top with the shrimp. Enjoy a delicious meal.
