Categories     Shellfish

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients
1 teaspoon salt
1 pound small or medium shrimp
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 green onion, finely chopped, white and green parts
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
Dash hot sauce
Dash black pepper

Steps:

  • Instructions Bring 2 cups of water and 1 teaspoon salt to a boil in a medium saucepan and add the shrimp. When the water returns to the boil, turn off the heat, cover the pot, and allow the shrimp to sit for 5 minutes. Drain, peel and devein. Place the shrimp in a food processor and pulse about 8 to 10times, until they are finely chopped but not mushy. Mix together the cream cheese, mayonnaise, green onion, mustard, hot sauce, and pepper in a bowl until well combined; stir in the shrimp. Line a 2-cup mold or glass bowl with plastic wrap, leaving lots of overhang. Place the shrimp mixture into the mold, packing tightly with a spatula. Cover with plastic wrap overhang and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight. When ready to serve, unwrap the overhang and invert the mold onto a plate. Remove the plastic wrap. Allow to come to room temperature before serving with water crackers or another favorite snack cracker.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If you must use frozen shrimp, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight or under cold running water for about 30 minutes.
  • Clean the shrimp properly. Remove the heads, shells, and tails from the shrimp. Then, devein the shrimp by making a shallow cut along the back of each shrimp and removing the dark vein.
  • Marinate the shrimp. Marinating the shrimp in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Cook the shrimp properly. Shrimp should be cooked quickly over high heat. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately. Shrimp are best served immediately after they are cooked. You can serve them with a variety of dipping sauces, such as cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, or lemon butter sauce.
