Categories     Spreads

Time 2h30m

Yield 1 quart shrimp mold, 20-30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 envelope unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup water
8 ounces cream cheese
8 ounces thousand island dressing
1/4-1/2 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons grated onions
1 tablespoon grated red pepper
1 tablespoon grated green bell pepper
1 lb cooked chopped shrimp (fresh is best, about 2 cups)
2 -3 stalks celery, diced (about 1/2 cup)

Steps:

  • Grease a 1-quart gelatin mold or several smaller molds.
  • In top of double boiler, place gelatin, water and cream cheese; heat until melted.

  • Add all remaining ingredients and mix well.
  • Pour into prepared mold (molds) and refrigerate until set (about 2-3 hours or overnight).
  • To serve, unmold onto a bed of lettuce.
  • Serve with crackers.

Tips:

  • Selecting Shrimp: Choose fresh or frozen shrimp that are deveined and peeled to save time during preparation.
  • Cooking the Shrimp: Boil or steam the shrimp until they turn opaque and pink. Avoid overcooking to prevent rubbery texture.
  • Chilling the Mold: Before assembling the shrimp mold, chill the mold in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This helps the gelatin set faster and gives the mold a smooth surface.
  • Layering the Ingredients: Layer the ingredients in the mold in a visually appealing manner. Start with a layer of shrimp, then add chopped vegetables, hard-boiled eggs, and any other desired ingredients.
  • Refrigerating the Mold: Refrigerate the shrimp mold for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the gelatin to set completely.
