Don’t forget about shrimp cocktail.
I’ll get my large pot on the stove top 3/4 full of water and bring it to a violent boil.
While I’m waiting for it to boil I’ll make a "happy" package for the water. In a 9â€x9†square of doubled up cheesecloth I’ll put a handful of celery leaves, about a 1/2 tablespoon of peppercorns, 2 or 3 dried bay leaves and a couple of chunks of lemon peal.
When the water is boiling I’ll add the package to the water and the juice of half a lemon. I’ll let the package boil for about a minute.
Next I’ll throw in my deveined shrimp with the shell still on and boil till done.
As soon as the shrimp is done drain it and throw it in an ice bath to stop the cooking.
Chill until cold in the fridge and then serve with some homemade cocktail sauce.
