what is it about this dish that is so damn good?????

I just got the urge, thawed a handful of shrimps, steamed them, chilled them, and mixed a bit of horseradish with some datil pepper ketchup.

Good stuff.

^Also featured at today's brunch. Excellent stuff, huh? Shrimp is otherwise pretty flavorless, but with the right cocktail sauce, it soars.

Thank you Andy.

What is it about the female stomach muscles that makes Chief's tongue wet?

and Wiki, #11,

No, that would be crazy.

Chief has access to a multitude of unavailable squaws as it is...no need to compound the problem...

Tad bit of cream cheese stirred in with the cocktail sauce...BAM!

^this datil ketchup came to me as a result of some interesting events.......it happened that a person who walks a dog past my mother's house also grew datil peppers (family tradition for centuries). Somehow a conversation between her and my mom was struck and peppers were mentioned.

One thing led to another and I ended up with a bag of dried peppers and a big bottle of "sauce".......basically ketchup, ground peppers, and sugar.

Anyway........I tasted it after mixing in some horseradish and determined that it was perfect as is.

I think that the appeal of this dish is in its simplicity.........chilled steamed shrimps..........spicy sauce.

Nothing fancy.

Like most things, simple is best.

It's simple and delicious!

I love a good shrimp cocktail, the bigger and fresher the shrimp, the better.

Agreed.
