What's Cookin': Return to an old favourite When was the last time you had a classic shrimp cocktail? I don't think I've even seen one on a restaurant menu in years! But every now and then for a special occasion, my parents will serve one up and it's such a treat! The recipe today tells you how to make the cocktail sauce for the shrimp cocktail. Here is the rest you need to know.... You will need some lettuce-- usually iceburg lettuce that has been cored, soaked in COLD water, drained and refrigerated so that it is super cold and crisp. This gets slivered up and goes in the bottom of the stemmed glass. Next goes the cocktail sauce-- a nice generous spoonful on top of the lettuce. You'll also need a lemon-- a small wedge of lemon is nice garnish. Most importantly, you need shrimp. Not just any shrimp though. The point of a shrimp cocktail is to really enjoy the size of the shrimp. So, you are looking for qual- Lori Gysel & Gerry Kentner ity and size, not quantity. Each cocktail only needs five shrimp (and if it is a multiple course meal, even three shrimp will do it). I would suggest that you buy the cooked shrimp. The main reason I suggest this is that when shrimp is cooked before packaging, it is steamed-- not boiled. So the shrimp all thoroughly cooked, but they retain as much of their size as possible and they do not curl up. They also are just perfectly cooked, as opposed to being boiled, where they tend to get rubbery quickly. As for the size, there is a number on the bag that indicates how many shrimp per pound. Generally if the number is 31/40, that means that there anywhere from 3140 shrimp in a pound. You want as low a number as you can afford. If you can get 16/20 size, that's great or 8/12 is even better. This won't be cheap, but remember, you only need a few per person. Thaw the shrimp in the fridge overnight. Or, if you don't have time, put the frozen shrimp in a colander and run it under COLD water until the shrimp are thawed. Do not microwave or put in hot water because the shrimp will become overcooked and rubbery in no time! Serve with a bit of bread and you have a fantastic appetizer! Have fun and keep cooking!
