Warm Shrimp in Remoulade Sauce
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon horseradish, bottled
1 teaspoon anchovy, mashed
3 tablespoons Creole mustard
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
1 tablespoon ketchup
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1 teaspoon garlic, finely minced
1/4 cup celery, chopped
1 lb. large shrimp, peeled, deveined
1/4 cup parsley, minced
1/4 cup green onion, tops only, minced
Plunge shrimp into lightly salted boiling water. Once they are pink, remove from
the water and set aside. Overcooked shrimp are tough. They will be further
cooked in the sauce.
In a bowl, mix or blend the first 11 ingredients. Stir in the next 3
ingredients. Place mixture in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until
hot but not boiling, three to four minutes
Into this, stir the freshly peeled, deveined boiled shrimp (1 pound). Do not
overcook, perhaps a minute and a half or two: under-do this! Stir in minced
green onion tops and parsley. Adjust seasoning.
This is absolutely delicious served over your choice of a bed of fresh spinach
or romaine, a treat on thickly sliced ripe tomatoes, even on angel hair pasta or
placed over grilled eggplant slices, any one of which should be lightly herbed.
Serves four as an entre, or six to eight as an hors d'ouevre.
