Seasoning Boiled Shrimp
All right we are back and we just removed our shrimp from the shrimp boil and we got a nice gentle steam coming off of these guys. So I placed them in the bowl and as they are steaming, I just want to take the exact same seasoning that I used to poach these guys. I'm going to sprinkle that over the top of them and you see me wearing these Latex gloves a lot. Never is it more important when you are messing with seasonings like these because you don't want to get it into your skin over a long period of time because it will start to irritate it. Also once you are done, you can just pull the gloves off and throw them in the trash and wash your hands and there is less risk of you getting this into your eyes. There is Cayenne Pepper and things of that nature in this seasoning mix and it is not a lot of fun when that happens when it gets in your eyes there. So I am just going to kind of twirl these around so we get a final dose of seasoning on them. What I am going to do next is just throw these guys into the refrigerator and let them chill for probably about a half hour and these guys will be nice and ready to eat. This is what you want to look for as far as the almost finished product. We are ready to go and put these guys into the refrigerator and chill them down and that seasoning is going to stick to these guys and it will make a really nice tasty treat when they are done.
