Chef Report post Posted July 21, 2010 Tony, you were a topic of conversation that day. Actually, it was the shrimp cocktail we were talking about! Wish you would have made it and I echo Ernesto's well wishes on your Mothers condition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Outdoor Writer Report post Posted July 21, 2010 Ernesto, My mom had a minor heart attack due to a blocked artery. They did an angioplasty and inserted a stent to keep it open. She came home yesterday and is now doing fine. Thanks for asking. Chef, The pickled shrimp is delicous. I used to make it as an appetizer when I had all the guys here at the house for the annual "Steenkin' Peeg Hunt." Here's the recipe in case you want to try it. Pickled Shrimp 3 pounds of cooked, deveined med. shrimp 1 large, thinly sliced onion 1 1/4 cups salad oil 3/4 cup white vinegar 1 1/2 tsp salt 2 1/2 tsp celery seeds 3 Tbsp capers & juice 2 dashes tabasco 1 crushed clove garlic Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Allow to marinate several hours, preferrably overnight. Remove garlic before serving. Serves 12-16. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chef Report post Posted July 21, 2010 Tony, I'm laughing as I type this because my mouth literally started to water as soon as got halfway through the recipe! That sounds delicious and I love capers! I will try that recipe and thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Outdoor Writer Report post Posted July 21, 2010 That sounds delicious and I love capers! Me too. I usually put twice the amount the recipe calls for. I also add a few shakes of Old Bay seasoning. In case you're not familiar with it, it's the reddish stuff they use in Maryland to coat the steamed crabs. One caution: BARELY cook the shrimp! The marinate also "cooks" them, so the shrimp will get tough if you overdo the initial boiling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antlerdog Report post Posted July 21, 2010 Tony, I can't say that I will wait a year to have some pickled shrimp! It's good to hear your mother is home. and doing fine. Sincerely. Jim Reynolds Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
