Directions:Shrimp:
Put 6 quarts water in a large stew pot. Add lemons, onion and Old Bay. Bring to a boil and reduce heat as needed to prevent boiling over but maintain the boil. Allow this mixture to boil for 5-7 minutes to release the flavors. Meanwhile, rinse the shrimp well. Drop the shrimp all at once into the boiling water. They will sink to the bottom. Stir ONCE. When the shrimp are done, they will rise to the top. You will have to watch the pot – and do not overcook. Fill the bottom of a large shallow casserole with ice. Use a spider or other slotted utensil to quickly remove the shrimp and put it on top of the ice. Tumble the shrimp with the ice to cool it down quickly. Drain off the water from the casserole and serve immediately.
Red Sauce (Cocktail Sauce):
Combine all ingredients well and chill. Makes approximately 1 cup sauce. It is better when made a few hours in advance, and may be made up to 48 hours ahead. This makes a great red sauce for boiled shrimp and crab.
Approximately 13 calories per tablespoon. |
