DILLED SHRIMP SPREAD



Dilled Shrimp Spread image

Provided by Cindy Vogels

Categories     Condiment/Spread     Shellfish     Cocktail Party     Picnic     Seafood     Shrimp     Shower     Party     Gourmet     Colorado

Yield Makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lb medium shrimp (about 60), shelled and, if desired, deveined
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup safflower oil
2 tablespoons chili sauce such as Heinz
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, or to taste
1 teaspoon celery seeds
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
2 celery ribs, chopped
1/2 medium onion, chopped
Accompaniment: crackers

Steps:

  • Cook shrimp in boiling salted water, stirring once or twice, until pink and just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain in a colander and cool completely. Blend garlic, mayonnaise, oil, chili sauce, dill, celery seeds, and salt in a food processor until smooth. Add shrimp, celery, and onion and pulse until shrimp is chopped. Transfer to a serving bowl and chill, covered, until cold, about 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Choose the right shrimp: Fresh, wild-caught shrimp are the best option for this spread. Avoid frozen or pre-cooked shrimp, as they will not have the same flavor or texture.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery. Cook them until they are just opaque and pink, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Use high-quality mayonnaise: The mayonnaise is a key ingredient in this spread, so it's important to use a good quality brand. Look for a mayonnaise that is made with real eggs and oil, and avoid mayonnaise that contains artificial ingredients.
  • Add some flavor: This spread is a blank canvas, so you can add any flavors that you like. Some popular options include lemon juice, dill, Old Bay seasoning, and horseradish.
  • Chill the spread before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and will make the spread easier to spread.

Conclusion:

Shrimp spread is a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a shrimp spread that will be the hit of your next party or gathering.
