Problem: Article: There are several websites that vectorize a PNG, BMP, JPEG or GIF image for free. Search for sites like Vectorization.org, Vectormagic.com or Autotracer.org, or type "vectorization website" into a search engine. The most versatile option is to use a PDF; however you can also save it for Adobe programs as an EPS or AI file. This will take a few moments or minutes, depending upon the complexity of the file. You may notice that your image now looks like a computer-generated image. The effect is especially noticeable with photographs. Different online vectorization programs have different options for changing the look of your vector image before you download it. You may want to try a few different programs if you don't like the result. Save the image to your Downloads folder or desktop. Use this image as you would a vector image.
Summary: Choose this method if you don't have much graphic design experience. Save your PNG, BMP, JPEG or GIF file to your computer desktop. Navigate to popular vectorization websites. Click the button that says "Upload Image" or use the browser button to find the image on your computer. Select the new file format you want to use. Wait for the program to trace the image. Try the settings that are suggested to change the colors, the detail level and other parts of the image. Click the "Download" button to download the result.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Measure 1 to 2 tablespoons (5 to 10 g) of coffee beans into the mortar. Cover the top of the mortar with one hand to stop the beans from jumping out. With your other hand, swirl the pestle around to mash the beans. After five seconds, pull out the pestle and bring it down in a vertical motion to hammer the beans. Repeat the swirling and hammering until you achieve the desired consistency. Only grind small quantities of beans at a time in the pestle and mortar. This will ensure the most consistent grind. A pestle and mortar will produce anything from a coarse to a super fine grind. Place the beans on a large wooden cutting board. Take a large butcher knife and lay the blade flat against the beans. Lay your open palm against the flat top of the blade and apply pressure to crack the beans. Once the beans have cracked, carefully slide the knife toward you. Continue applying pressure to grind the beans finer. Using this method, you'll be able to achieve a medium or medium-fine grind. Measure your coffee beans and transfer them to a thick plastic freezer bag. Seal the bag and place it on a flat surface. Shake the beans around so they're in a single layer. With gentle force, bring the rolling pin down onto the beans like a hammer to crack them. Once cracked, apply pressure and roll the rolling pin back and forth until you get the right grind. You can also place the beans between sheets of parchment paper if you don't have a freezer bag at your disposal. Using the rolling pin will result in a medium fine to fine grind. Place the beans between two pieces of parchment paper, or into a sealed freezer bag. Lay the bag on a towel on a flat surface and spread the beans out so they're in an even layer. Use moderate and consistent strokes to bring the hammer down on the beans to crush them. Keep hammering until you have a coarse to medium consistency. You can grind beans like this using a hammer, meat tenderizer, or mallet. A hand mincer is a manual grinder that can be used to mince meat, make pasta, or grind just about anything, including coffee. Measure the beans and pour them into the grinder. Turn the crank arm with your hand in a clockwise direction to process the beans. To achieve a finer grind, collect the ground beans and run them through the grinder again.

SUMMARY: Use a pestle and mortar. Crack them. Grind them with a rolling pin. Mash them with a hammer. Use a hand mincer.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Starting with shrimp that have already been peeled and deveined will help you cut down on your prep time. If you prefer, you can also buy whole shrimp and peel them yourself later. Either way, all you'll have to do to get them ready for the pot, oven, or skillet is thaw them out. While shopping for frozen shrimp, check each package for a symbol reading "IQF," which stands for "Individually Quick Frozen." This means each shrimp has been frozen separately, which reduces clumping and improves flavor and texture. It's important that your shrimp be deveined. It's practically impossible to devein shrimp while they're still frozen or after they've been cooked, and it will take much longer if you wait until after they've thawed. Snip open the bag and shake out the frozen shrimp into your colander or strainer. To ensure that your shrimp defrost as quickly as possible, be sure to break up any large chunks that have frozen together. If you don't have a colander or strainer, try leaving the bag sealed and running some cool water over it in the sink to thaw it. It's time-consuming, but it will get the job done. You can also place the exact amount of shrimp you want to cook in a separate resealable plastic bag before continuing if you don't want to prepare the entire bag at once. Lower the colander into the bowl, making sure it fits comfortably and the water covers the shrimp entirely. Allow the shrimp to sit for 10-15 minutes, or until the last of the ice has melted. To speed up the thawing process, leave a small stream of fresh water trickling into the bowl to continually replace the water that's grown cold. Remove the colander or strainer and shake it a few times to get rid of excess water, then pour the shrimp out on top of the paper towels. Fold one half of the absorbent pad over or use a separate towel to gently blot the shrimp and soak up any remaining moisture. There should be no visible ice crystals or standing water on the surface of the shrimp when you're done. Add your thawed shrimp to a dry nonstick pan or pot of boiling water over high heat and cook them for roughly 2-3 minutes, or until they just turn opaque. The heat will cause the shrimp to shrink slightly, essentially wringing every last bit of unwanted moisture out of them. While it's not necessary to give your shrimp a preliminary warmup, it can be a useful step if you want to make sure they don't make the dish you're preparing soggy.
Summary:
Pick up a bag of peeled, deveined shrimp. Place the shrimp in a colander or wire strainer. Submerge the colander or strainer in a bowl of cool water. Transfer the thawed shrimp to a layer of folded paper towels. Heat the shrimp briefly to release any remaining liquid (optional).
