After the success of his books The Ultimate Ice Cream Book and The Ultimate Party Drinks Book, Bruce Weinstein
turns his take-no-prisoners approach to shrimp, with
very interesting results. Weinstein offers up 650 recipes
for shrimp, from the classics such as Shrimp Remoulade,
Shrimp � la King, Shrimp Mole, Shrimp Gumbo and Shrimp
Etouff�e, to fusion-inspired dishes, such as Coconut Shrimp,
Sesame Shrimp, Tandoori Shrimp, and Bon Bon Shrimp.
For each main dish, the basic recipe is given, with a number
of possible variations on the dish added at the end of the recipe.
The recipes are simple to follow, and are arranged in alphabetical
order -- if you know what recipe you're looking for, this
is quite helpful. If not, just browse through the book until
you see something that catches your fancy. This is a great, basic
instruction book which is sure to come in handy whenever
you have a longing for a delicious shrimp dish.
