I am going to brine some shrimp later and suggestions i have seen say to brine for 30 minutes at room temperature. Problem is, I want to prepare them and put them in some tupperware for transport to a friend’s bbq. If I leave them in the brine after i clean them and just stick the containers in the fridge after 30 minutes at room temp, will sitting in there too long break down the shrimp meat?

Ok, I got all the water ready and everything was perfect, and when I put the eggs in nothing happened. I stirred and then aerated and nothing happened. There were just white specks that would float up to the top and some would go down. I aerated and aerated and then I left them alone with the light on, because the only room in my house where my bro and sis wouldn’t knock em over is my room and it isn’t that sunny. What is happening? I put the eggs in yesterday at exactly 4:56
I know weird right? Nothing is swimming around just white flecks that are drifting, are those dead sea monkey bodies? Also, in the package were little green flecks, is that the food the start out with? Did I do it wrong? Please help? My water might be a little too cold. I boiled it and I let it cool in about 68 degree room temp. So lets overview, my sea monkeys aren’t swimming there are just white flecks that are drifting with the water and my water might be too cold. What is wrong and are they going to hatch?
First off, Red Monkey Butt Room isn’t the official name of the room, it’s what I call it. Why? Because my father in law collects freakin baboon statuettes. But not just your regular ol baboon statuettes. He gets ones where the baboons are in compromising positions. Through the years, his undeniable passion for the sculptured stillness of the bending over monkey has resulted in a room with a dizzying sea of red butts. As if that weren’t bad enough, he hosts all his dinner parties in there! He even has candlesticks where the red monkey butt holds a candle shaped like a monkey sticking his butt up in the air. Just the thought of all those monkey butts makes me red! And my wife, God bless her, doesn’t see the big deal. She always says, “So what? You like eagles.” And she’s right, I do like eagles. That’s why I have ONE eagle blanket. Not a dinner room filled with red monkey butts!!! We’re supposed to go over there soon. I don’t mind he has them. But shouldn’t dinner be held somewhere else?
