Cookery
An 1896 drawing of a mantis shrimp
In Japanese cuisine, the mantis shrimp is eaten raw as sashimi and as a sushi topping, and is called shako (�蛄). It is commonly served in Japan, but is not often found on the menu at sushi restaurants in the United States [citation needed].
In Cantonese cuisine, the mantis shrimp is a popular dish known as "pissing shrimp" (攋尿è�¦, Mandarin pinyin: lài niào xiÄ�, modern Cantonese: laaih niuh hÄ�) due to its tendency to urinate when cooked. Because of this, mantis shrimp are speared to induce them to evacuate their bowels prior to being introduced into the cookpot. After cooking, their flesh is closer to that of lobsters than that of shrimp, and like lobsters, their shells are quite hard and require some pressure to crack.
In the Mediterranean countries the mantis shrimp Squilla mantis is a common seafood, especially on the Adriatic coasts.
The usual concerns associated with consuming seafood are an issue with mantis shrimp, as they may dwell in contaminated waters. This is especially true in Hawaii where some have grown unnaturally large.
