A scampi expert please!

I did make it and it was quite delicious. I certainly didnt try to remove the eyes!

Me neither Lemsip! Sounds awful.

after reading the comments I would never eat scampi!

How I used to love scampi. It seems somewhat of a rarity these days.

Good luck with your risotto!

There are loads of videos of how to prepare langoustines - I just found that some people snap the head off from the tail and peel the tails, pulling out the "waste" in one piece where others cut them in half lengthwise.
Suppose I'd watch a few and see what suits. The are lots of them.
Good luck.

I have just Googled," How to clean Scampi", and apart from removing the alimentary canal, chopping of legs etc, it looks in the video, as though the green/ black bit is left after cutting through the centre.
Good luck gulia.

I googled too. Not a green blob anywhere. However, one site said to remove the EYES!

I have removed the alimentary canal from a prawn but the only scampi I know is the one served with chips ?sorry and good luck with your culinary adventure !

No advice.
But I admire your bravery for tackling this dish.
