Time 1h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 cups boiling water
4 cubes chicken bouillon
8 cups water, or more as needed
1 large onion, quartered
1 head garlic
3 bay leaves
3 whole cloves
4 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
2 teaspoons dill seeds
2 teaspoons white mustard seeds
2 teaspoons celery seeds
1 teaspoon whole allspice berries
1 teaspoon whole green peppercorns
1 lemon, halved
9 small red potatoes, or more to taste
3 ears corn, shucked and cut into thirds, or more to taste
16 ounces raw shrimp, headless and shells on
4 cups ice cubes

Steps:

  • Combine boiling water and bouillon cubes in a large pot and stir until dissolved. Add 8 additional cups of water, onion, garlic, bay leaves, cloves, butter, salt, coriander seeds, dill seeds, mustard seeds, celery seeds, allspice, and peppercorns and bring to a boil, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Squeeze lemon juice into the pot and add lemon to the pot as well. Add potatoes and cook for 14 minutes. Add corn and cook 6 minutes more. Add shrimp and cook until opaque, about 3 minutes. Remove pot from heat.
  • Add ice cubes to the pot with the shrimp boil and let sit for 5 minutes.
  • For a traditional shrimp boil, place several layers of newspaper on the dining table. Use a slotted spoon to transfer shrimp, potatoes, and corn onto the center of the table for everyone to reach, grab, and enjoy. For a tidier take, place several layers of newspaper on a baking sheet. Place shrimp, potatoes, and corn on top of the sheet and place the sheet on the dining table for everyone to serve themselves. If you are a neat freak, place shrimp, potatoes, and corn in a serving dish to pass at the table.

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 quarts water
1 bay leaf
1 lemon, quartered
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
1 lb shrimp
1/2 cup chili sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1/4 teaspoon hot red pepper sauce

  • To make cocktail sauce, combine chili sauce, lime juice, horseradish, hot red pepper sauce, and Worcestershire sauce in bowl.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your sauce will taste. This is especially true for the tomatoes and garlic.
  • Don't overcook the sauce: Red sauce is best when it is simmered for a long time over low heat. This allows the flavors to develop and deepen. However, if you overcook the sauce, it will become bland and watery.
  • Add a touch of sweetness: A little bit of sugar or honey can help to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes and add a touch of sweetness to the sauce. You can also achieve this by adding carrots, bell peppers, and onions.
  • Season to taste: Every palate is different, so be sure to season the sauce to your liking. A good starting point is to add salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. You can also add other spices, such as oregano, basil, or thyme, to taste.

Conclusion:

Red sauce is a versatile condiment that can be used to flavor a variety of dishes, from pasta and pizza to seafood and chicken. With so many different recipes to choose from, there's sure to be a red sauce that everyone will enjoy.
