Each preparation creates a different flavor profile and your recipe options are endless. Shrimp can be enjoyed as a simple snack, as a protein in salads, mixed into pasta, wrapped in a tortilla, or stirred into a dip. As culinary directors of our own kitchens we also have many options for the type of shrimp we buy, ranging from the size of the shrimp to where it comes from. You can choose your favorite brand from the supermarket freezer or a pound of fresh, or wild-caught from a local fishmonger depending on where you live. While pre-cooked shrimp is easy to thaw and serve, don’t shy away from fresh shrimp. It’s really not that difficult to peel and devein shrimp yourself at home. In this list of satisfying shrimp recipes, you’ll find a selection of tasty ideas that incorporate different types of shrimp and cooking methods to create everything from appetizers and lunches on-the-go to full dinners.
