SHRIMP COCKTAIL SPREAD



Shrimp Cocktail Spread image

This is from an old Best of Bridge cookbook that has been served at many parties and is always the first thing to be gobbled up. If you run out of crackers people will eat it with spoons! You can use light versions of cream cheese and mayo but I can't tell you what the results would be like. Feel free to add another can of shrimp if you want it shrimpier.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality shrimp for the best flavor. Look for shrimp that are firm and have a slightly translucent appearance. Avoid shrimp that are mushy or have a slimy texture.
  • Properly devein the shrimp to remove any grit or sand. Use a sharp knife to make a shallow incision along the back of the shrimp, then gently remove the vein.
  • Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque, about 2-3 minutes. Overcooking will make the shrimp tough and rubbery.
  • Make the cracker spread ahead of time so that the flavors have time to meld. The spread can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Serve the cracker spread with a variety of crackers, such as Ritz crackers, Triscuit crackers, or melba toast. You can also serve it with vegetables, such as celery or carrot sticks.
