Maximize your use of boiling water. If you need to cook raw shrimp for a few minutes, use the opportunity to remove the skins from a few tomatoes and/or make hard-boiled eggs. Just drop everything into the same pot of boiling water? The tomatoes will take no more than a minute. Then scoop them out and pull off the skins. The shrimp will take 3-5 minutes, depending on size, to turn pink and slightly curl. Then scoop them out and peel them. The eggs will take 10 minutes in boiling water and then another 2 minutes sitting in hot water. Then run under cold water and peel.
