Dr Greger Date Syrup Recipe Recipe For Shrimp

DATE SYRUP RECIPE | EASY + HEALTHY SUGAR ALTERNATIVE

Steps:

• In a bowl combine dates and hot water. Cover and let sit for 1 to 4 hours.
• Combine dates, with water and lemon in a food processor. Blend until smooth.
• Add to a glass or air tight container and store in fridge. The syrup will thicken more over night.

SHRIMP SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp shells and cook, stirring, until they turn golden brown, about 8 minutes. Lower the heat to medium.
• Add the onion, carrot, celery, thyme and garlic to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 6 minutes. Add the tomatoes, stock, brandy and wine. Simmer, uncovered, for 1 hour.
• Pass the liquid through a strainer and discard the solids. Pour the liquid into a saucepan and simmer until reduced to 1 1/2 cups. Season with salt to taste. Remove from the heat. Add the butter 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking constantly until all of the butter has been incorporated and the sauce is the consistency of heavy cream. Strain and set aside. Serve with sturgeon and spring vegetables (see above).
