These things are very hard to prove, or, more importantly to someone like me, disprove, but it’s with great confidence that I’m calling this, “THE best hot crab dip.” It just is.

Deviled Shrimp Tostadas – Taco, Not Taco

It’s always been a mystery as to why tostadas aren’t more popular. Anything that can be done with a taco, especially a crispy taco, can be done with, or should I say on, a tostada.

There are many different methods for making shrimp tempura, and after trying most of them I believe this is the simplest, easiest way to achieve what I consider the ultimate result – a perfectly cooked shrimp encased in a light, airy, very thin, but extremely crispy shell.

Creamy Garlic Shrimp Toast – It’s All About That Base

I love serving saucy things over toast. And, when that saucy thing is creamy garlic shrimp, and the toast it’s over has been pan-fried in butter, I really love it.
