EN: scalded; steamed (cooked in its own juice)
The simplest, purest way to cook shrimp: "Halabos na Hipon." It's basically steaming the shrimp in a bit of salted water (or even just Sprite/7-Up!) until they turn bright orange. No fancy sauces, no complicated steps. It's the "I'm too lazy to cook but I want something delicious" method for seafood. It lets the natural sweetness of the shrimp shine.
Primarily used to describe a cooking method for crustaceans like shrimp and crabs. As a noun (`ang halabos`), it refers to the dish itself.
