Very gourmet and subtle, this makes All The Difference in how GREAT shrimp taste - and it takes NO TIME... never again buy cooked shrimp! Ingredients:
6 cups water |
1 tablespoon salt |
1 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar |
2 bay leaves |
1 teaspoon whole mixed pickling spice |
2 stalks celery |
2 lbs medium shrimp, in their shells |
Directions:
1. Add spices to water in a large pot, 6 quarts or so.
2. Bring to boil.
3. Add shrimp and bring BACK to boil.
4. Simmer 5-8 minutes, until shrimp have turned pink and are floating on the surface of the water.
5. Drain in colander.
6. Let cool (chill in refrigerator - or quickly in freezer, if desired).
7. Serve with Heinz Cocktail Sauce that has been chilled OR serve with melted butter that has some garlic crushed into it.
8. I usually make At Least 1/2 lb per person because people LOVE to make pigs of themselves [and if the shrimp is on special, this isn't THAT extravagant].
