Just to keep this all together this is the recipe I used:

1/2 cup Creole mustard
1/2 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons prepared horseradish
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons minced onion
2 teaspoons chopped green onion
2 teaspoons paprika
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
24 cooked medium shrimp, shelled and deveined


I added a little mayo, and prepared the horseradish from fresh horseradish root.

Just leave the very end of the tail on the shrimp as a handle to wield it to the mouth.

I actually did on about 60% of them. Is this an appetizer where it should be a finger food?

If you are doing for a party then certainly, which is what I gleened from your post.

I prefer tail off, that way you can just fork the whole thing into your mouth.

Your's looks very good. Next time, boil with the head and shell still on, then peel.

However, 95% (if not all) of restaurants boil them already peeled. If you do so, put a little lemon juice and a little crab boil in the water. Peeled ones get very spicy. But the texture is different, and shell and head on is much better.

I use a fork when on a plate or a toothpick when served as a cocktail food without utensils. Can't stand the tail left on. There's good meat in the tail and I don't want to have to peel it to get to it, my own self, or try to pop it out with my teeth when I'm being ladylike, which is always.

This. Except I don't know that I'm always being ladylike. I just think it's a waste of good shrimp if you don't go for it. I particularly hate it when a restaurant leaves it on for a dinner salad.

That's gonna be my next task.

Is there a thread like the Jambalaya one that will provide me with yankee-proof instructions?

Thank you, sir. Y'all are really good people. I'm coming to an LSU game in Tiger Stadium before I die. And I'll even wear some purple and gold. Polo, not a jersey, right?

Can someone tell me the best way to cook the shrimp for this? I.feel like this would be really good with sauteed shrimp, would it be ok to use warm shrimp then coat it with the chilled sauce?

Im very amateur dealing with shrimp and I'm making tits as an appetizer for Christmas prime rib.

I feel like the shrimp was undercooked using the instructions on the old bay container.
