Marinated Shrimp Appetizer
|
2 ½ pounds shrimp, unpeeled |
|
1 cup celery tops |
|
¼ teaspoon pickling spice |
|
3 ½ teaspoons salt |
Cover shrimp in boiling water with celery tops, spices, and salt. Boil 2-3 minutes—remove and cool under cold water. Peel shrimp after cooking. Marinate at least 24 hours.
|
1 cup large celery slices |
|
1 cup sliced onions (separate rings) |
|
1 ¼ cups vegetable oil |
|
¾ cups vinegar |
|
1 ½ teaspoons salt |
|
7 or 8 bay leaves |
|
Several large drops Tabasco |
|
2 ½ tablespoons capers and juice |
|
½ cup sliced green pepper |
|
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce |
OPTIONAL: 1 teaspoon pickling spice in cheese cloth, tied up and sitting in marinade. Remove both cheesecloth and bay leaves before serving.
Serve in glass bowl with toothpicks.
NOTE: Got this recipe years ago from my Aunt Evelyn in Sanford. It is wonderful and she always used to bring it to Thanksgiving for an appetizer!
