Shrimp Boil (Peel And Eat Shrimp) - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 lb shrimp, shell on
1/2 gallon water (4ish cups)
1 cup apple juice
1 cup carrot
1 cup celery
10 peppercorns
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup white onion
1 head garlic
2 lemons, sliced in half
2 tablespoons salt
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon parsley
Preparation
-
Cut head of garlic in half & chop all veggies.
Put everything in a large stock pot BUT shrimp.
If using more than 1 lb of shrimp, double as needed. I've done 5 lbs in one huge pot.
Boil for 15 to 20 minute.
The stock will be too salty and to spicy.
Add shrimp and depending on size cook on high 5 to 10 minute.
Put a strainer into the sink.
Remove pan from heat and dump into strainer, pick out shrimp and eat hot or cold.
If you want to eat them cold then don't dump all the liquid. save about half and place shrimp, veggies and stock in a bowl and put in fridge till desired temperature.
We prefer to eat warm.
