This was a great suggestion! Thank you! The shrimp came out just perfect. And thanks for the plug for wild shrimp.....we always support our Gulf Coast shrimp boats by choosing to buy wild shrimp!

I tried to make this recipe, but was unable to find a 100 lb shrimp. That's probably because it would not be called a "shrimp" if it were that big!

I just tried this recipe, and the shrimp came out perfectly cooked, just as you said. The water wasn't boiling, but I stirred until two shrimp floated, and whalah! Perfectly cooked 41-50 ct. shrimp!! It was farm raised, and I can't wait to try it on some wild caught! Thanks so much!!! No more tough, overcooked shrimp.

I am in heaven! These are the best shrimp I have ever eaten. Usually they are tough and rubbery. Not anymore!! Followed your recipe and I have the most tender, delicious shrimp ever! I will never make them any other way, and we are sure to be eating a whole lot more shrimp in our house! Thanks for sharing this fabulous secret!
