Florida Gulf Coast Newspaper Shrimp Dinner Recipes

FLORIDA GULF COAST NEWSPAPER SHRIMP DINNER

Steps:

• You will also need: newspaper or brown grocery bag split open.
• Fill a large stock pot 2/3 full of water.
• Add the bay seasoning, the orange, vinegar, and the limes.
• Bring to a rolling boil then add the potatoes, chicken, sausage, and the onion.
• Let bring back to a rolling boil, add water as needed to keep the ingredients covered.
• After boiling for 20 minutes, add the corn.
• After letting the corn boil for 5 minutes add the shrimp.
• Boil for another five minutes, or until the shrimp are thoroughly pink.
• Remove from heat, and drain the water off with a strainer.
• Spread the newspaper, or paper bags over the table and dump the drained food onto it.
• The orange and the limes can be discarded.
• Everyone helps themselves to the dinner.
• I would recommend the following condiments:.
• cocktail sauce for the peel and eat shrimp.
• sour cream for the potatoes.
• mustard sauce for the sausage (I usually mix 1/3 yellow, 1/3 Dijon, and 1/3 coarse stone ground for mine).
• You can have butter for the corn, but unlike traditional corn on the cob this corn will be very flavorful from the bay seasoning and the citrus, and I usually skip it.

FLORIDA COAST PICKLED SHRIMP

Steps:

• In a large pot, combine the crab boil, 2 teaspoons of the salt, the lemon quarters, and 8 cups water. Bring the mixture to a boil, and boil for 5 minutes. Add the shrimp, and cook until they are pink and cooked through, about 3 minutes. Drain the shrimp in a colander, and discard the crab boil and lemon.
• In a small saucepan, whisk together the oil, vinegar, lime juice, Creole mustard, peppercorns, fennel seeds, red-pepper flakes, garlic, bay leaves, and the remaining 2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, stir in the onions and carrots, and cool completely. Place the shrimp in a large nonreactive mixing bowl or container (sealable plastic storage containers work great), and cover with the marinade. Toss with the lemon slices, cover tightly, and refrigerate for at least 8 hours (or for up to 2 days), tossing every 4 or so hours, before serving. To serve the pickled shrimp, use a slotted spoon to transfer the shrimp and goodies (pickled veggies, spices) to a serving bowl, then add just enough liquid to keep everything moist (using the entire bowl of pickling liquid would be too messy).
