Why I chose this recipe:
I love shrimp and my friends know it. On a girls’ weekend away to our home in Vermont, a girlfriend treated us to her roasted shrimp recipe. I thought it was the easiest way to cook shrimp and they turned out to be the most flavorful shrimp I had ever had. I decided to add some kick to her recipe by serving the roasted shrimp with my delicious wasabi cocktail sauce. Don’t be scared of wasabi as it adds a depth of flavor that the horseradish does not. If you are worried about the “heat” from the wasabi, start with two teaspoons and test the taste intensity. Give this recipe a try, have your friends begging for more, and .
