Old Fashion Shrimp Boil



If you follow All My Love for All My Days on Facebook or Twitter you may have noticed that I've become somewhat obsessed with nautical anything.  You won't find me making any apologies.  Why would I?  Classical colors.  Fun stripes.  And the ocean...lots of the ocean.

My grandmother always serves boiled shrimp for our Christmas Eve dinner and they are always wonderful.  But it was on the shore of Pensacola Beach that I experiences the true beauty of a colossal shrimp.  And wow, oh wow!  Amazing.

I'm certain that recreating that recipe would be impossible for me mostly because truly fresh shrimp isn't quite as possible as I'd like living in middle America.

Here's the recipe I came up with and it was quite good, if I do say so myself.

  1. Boiling, preserves more nutrition then frying them.

    1. You're welcome. I think I could eat shrimp everyday. I must have inherited that from my dad. :)
