There’s nothing better than this American favorite. Feel free to adjust the horseradish or hot sauce to your taste. For an elegant presentation, place the shrimp in martini glasses and top with this classic American sauce.
Makes about 6 appetizer servings (with 11⁄2 cups sauce). I have added a note at the end of this post…My name is Emely and this is one of my special recipe with ingredients and directions. Let’s begin:
STEAMED SHRIMP WITH CLASSIC COCKTAIL SAUCE
INGREDIENTS :
1 cup ketchup
1⁄4 cup prepared horseradish
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped dill fronds
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
A few dashes of hot red pepper sauce to taste
1 pound medium shrimp (35 to 40 per pound), deveined but unpeeled
DIRECTIONS :
Mix the ketchup, horseradish, lemon juice, dill, Worcestershire sauce, and hot red pepper sauce in a small nonreactive bowl. (The sauce can be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.) Place the shrimp in the layers of a tiered bamboo steamer. Alternatively, use a conventional vegetable steamer. Fill a large pot—one whose width matches the bamboo steamer or that accommodates the vegetable steamer — with 2 inches of water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Place the steamer or basket over the water and cook until the shrimp are pink and firm, about 5 minutes. Remove the shrimp immediately from the heat to stop their cooking. Be forewarned — they are very hot. Serve warm or chill first in an ice-water bath, then in the refrigerator, before serving with Classic Cocktail Sauce on the side.
Broil the shrimp 6 inches from the heat source for 2 minutes or grill over medium heat for 2 minutes. Brush with the reserved marinade, turn, and continue cooking until the shrimp are pink and firm, 2 to 3 minutes, basting once more with the marinade. If you place the skewer ends to the side of the heat source, they will not burn—or wrap the ends in aluminum foil. Place the skewered shrimp on a serving plate and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
Note: Yakitori sauce is usually made with tamari, a thick, dark Japanese soy sauce that proves hard to find in the United States. Here, we’ve crafted a mélange to replicate tamari; should you get a bottle, omit the soy sauce, molasses, and Worcestershire sauce and use 1 ⁄3 cup.
Variations: Substitute chicken tenders or sea scallops for the shrimp. Use the yakitori sauce as a marinade and/or barbecue mop for boneless skinless chicken
breasts or boneless pork loin chops on the grill.
