Kitchen Tips
Tip 1
Food Facts
To many, asapao is known as the Puerto Rican paella.
Tip 2
Food Facts
The size of a shrimp is indicated by the number of shrimp per pound. The smaller the number, the larger the shrimp. Large shrimp will yield 26-30 per pound. Since the size differences can be slight, feel free to substitute medium or extra-large shrimp for large shrimp.
