Other Citrus

While lime juice has its own special flavor, you can substitute other citrus juices in its place. Lemon or Orange Juice bring the same sweet, tangy flavor as lime, so use these as your first option. Juice must be freshly squeezed to get the same flavor profile. Don't use juice that has water, additives and sugar, because this can alter the taste and texture of your final product. Use juice in equal parts to the original amount of lime juice in the recipe. If you don't have juice, a concentrate will work. Concentrates are stronger than juice, so use 1 part of concentrate for every 2 parts of juice.

Extract

Pure lime extract is made from limes and lime zest. These have a powerful lime flavor and are suitable replacements for fresh lime juice. Use lime extract at a ratio of 1 part extract for every 2 parts lime juice. Don't use imitation extracts -- these are made from artificial ingredients that can alter the taste of your recipe, especially in uncooked dishes.

Other

If your recipe needs lime juice for its acidity, you can replace the lime juice with another acid, like white distilled vinegar, red wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar. Vinegar is more potent than lime juice and doesn't have the same sweetness. Use 1 part vinegar for every 3 parts of lime juice required in your recipe. Crushed up vitamin C tablets that have been dissolved in water are also citrus replacements. Vitamin C tablets work best if you're replacing lime juice that is used to keep fruit or other food items from discoloring -- such as sprinkling lime juice over a fruit salad to maintain its color. Use the vitamin C tablets and water equal to the amount of lime juice called for in the recipe when adding it to fruit. The vitamin C tablets typically have a lemon or orange flavour.

Quick and Easy Peel and Eat Shrimp Recipe?

If you think precooked shrimp tastes tough and rubbery, you'll be surprised at how easy it is to prepare your own peel and eat shrimp. Shrimp is a delicate shellfish that can become rubbery and tasteless when overcooked. That's why it's a delicacy often best prepared at home.Ideally, choose fresh or frozen raw shrimp with the vein along the back already removed. Removing it yourself with a sharp knife isn't difficult, but it can be time consuming if you're prepping a pound of shrimp or more.Directions for Preparing a Pound of Peel and Eat ShrimpIngredients1 pound raw shrimp (any size larger than bay shrimp works fine) 20 peppercorns 1 large bowl of crushed ice or ice water Cocktail sauce LemonDirectionsRinse shrimp in cold water and refrigerate. Pour two bottles of beer into a large pot. You can use almost any type of beer you like, but more flavorful varieties like dark beers impart stronger flavor to the shrimp. Add about 20 whole peppercorns and bring the beer to a full boil on medium heat. Place the shrimp into the boiling beer being careful not to overcrowd them. Boil shrimp until they turn pink. This should take about two minutes. Don't overcook. Remove shrimp with a strainer or spider and place them immediately into the bowl of crushed ice or ice water for 15 minutes or until completely cool. Arrange shrimp on a bed of lettuce with wedges of lemon and a bowl of cocktail sauce. Serve immediately.recipe serves 4 to 6Notes: Prepare the freshest shrimp you can find. If frozen, make sure to avoid partial thawing during transport from the store to your kitchen.When ready to prepare, thaw frozen shrimp completely, but avoid holding them in your fridge any longer than you have to. Overnight thawing for use the next day is ideal.Chilling shrimp right from the pot is an essential step because it reduces the chance of overcooking by stopping the cooking process immediately.


How do you stuff shrimp?

To have stuffed shrimp, you want to start with "jumbo shrimp", the largest of the species. Then you simply "butterfly" the shrimp by cutting along the curled inside of the jumbo shrimp, but not all the way through. That will allow a place for the stuffing. If you use smaller shrimp, you won't get much stuffing into it. Here's a really good stuffed shrimp recipe you can try... http://www.crab-o-licious.com/cajun-crab-stuffed-shrimp-recipe.html


Barbecued Shrimp Brushed with Creole Butter?

Ingredients1 1/2 pounds large shrimp shells on8 cloves garlic4 shallots1/4 cup fresh oregano leaves chopped2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves1/2 pound unsalted butter softened1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce1/2 teaspoon salt1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper1/2 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper1 teaspoon cayenne pepper2 lemon cut in wedgesUsing small, sharp scissors, snip along the top ridge of each shrimp shell. Using a small knife, cut into the top surface of the shrimp to reveal the vein, then rinse it away.In a food processor, mince the garlic, shallots, oregano and thyme. Add the butter, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and peppers and process until thoroughly blended. Fit the Creole Butter between the shell and shrimp and refrigerate. Set aside the lemon wedges. The recipe up to this point can be completed 8 hours in advance of cooking.Preheat a gas grill to medium (350#161#F). When the grill is preheated, brush it with oil, then place the shrimp on the grill. When the shells turn pink on the underside, turn the shrimp over. Cut into a shrimp to test for doneness. The shrimp are done when the shells turn pink and the shrimp meat has lost its raw inside color, about 6 minutes. (Alternatively, preheat the oven to 500#161#F. Then turn the oven setting to broil and broil the shrimp 4 inches from the heat for about 6 minutes.)Serve the shrimp immediately on 4 heated dinner plates accompanied by lemon wedges and napkins.
