SHRIMP WITH BETTER COCKTAIL SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Combine the shrimp in a saucepan with water to cover. Turn the heat to high and bring to a boil. Cover the pan, remove from the heat, and let sit for 5 minutes. Drain and chill (you can run the shrimp under cold water if you're in a hurry).
• 2. Combine the ketchup, vinegar, and butter in a small saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter melts. (At this point, you can keep the sauce warm for over an hour - but keep the heat as low as possible.) Add horseradish to taste.
• 3. Serve the cold shrimp with the sauce, warm or cold.
• Keys to Success
• The easiest way to cook shrimp is to let them steep in hot water until they're done; they will cook through but not overcook, and thus remain tender. Peel them before cooking.
• With Minimal Effort
• If you have fresh horseradish, grate it and serve it separately from the sauce; dip the shrimp into the ketchup sauce and then into the horseradish.
• Use fresh lemon juice instead of vinegar and/or Tabasco or other hot sauce in place of the horseradish.
• Cook the shrimp with herbs or spices, such as a premixed combination of pickling spices, or simply a couple of bay leaves, some peppercorns, and some whole coriander seeds.
• Wine: Chardonnay or Pinot Blanc
• Serve With: If you serve this as an appetizer, follow with pasta or risotto. If you serve this as a main course, serve with bread and a steamed vegetable
