Pickled Shrimp
Nothing could be easier to make than some pickled shrimp. Like most recipes, tweak this one to your taste. Pickled shrimp are great on a cracker with a splash of your favorite hot sauce. Or add a few to a salad. If you see some beautiful plump shrimp at the market—grab them!
How to Make It
1
Peel and clean the shrimp—I like to keep the tail on. Blanch the shrimp in boiling water for 3 minutes. Drain thoroughly.
2
Place all other ingredients in a mason jar. Add shrimp. Shake to cover shrimp in marinade. Place in fridge and marinate overnight. Enjoy!
