It's actually quite dumb to bread beautiful jumbo shrimp... that's
like those moronic recipes that call for grinding/chopping jumbo
shrimp when small shrimp will do ... no kudos for being a kitchen
jerk.

That statement in moronic

It does seem a waste to bread good jumbo shrimp. It certainly not my favourite
way to do shrimp. However, I am tempted to try my hand at coconut shrimp.

It isn't the only way I eat them but is one of my favorite ways. Out of the
3 lbs I had of these this was the last pound as the other two pounds where
grilled.

Here is the basic recipe if you are interested:

Coconut Shrimp

Peanut or vegetable oil, for frying
1/4 cup cornstarch
*1/2 cup Panko bread crumbs ( I use the honey flavored) - optional mixed
with coconut flakes
1 large egg beaten
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup flaked coconut - ( if mixed with panko use a 1/2 cup)
1 pounds jumbo shrimp, peeled with tails on


Heat oil in a large deep skillet, or heavy pot or deep fryer to 350 degrees
F.

Dredge the shrimp with the cornstarch then the egg mixture and shake off any
excess. Press the shrimp into the coconut flakes (or coconut mixed with
panko) be sure to coat both sides.

Deep-fry the shrimp in batches until the coconut is golden brown, about 2 to
3 minutes. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, remove the shrimp to paper towels
to drain.

Orange Dipping Sauce
1/2 cup orange marmalade
1 to 2 tablespoons dark rum
1 lime, juiced

Mix all ingredients in a bowl and use for dipping.

Thanks. I will print that up and try it. But I may try the sauce that a local
restaurant used to do with marmalade, balsamic vinegar and a bit of mustard
powder. I go the ingredients from him when I pointed out there was something
different in the sauce, maybe mustard.. I tired it once and it was pretty good.

I have used several sauces with this Dave as well as one similar with
marmalade, mustard and balsamic. I have a rather large collection of sauces
saved with a few that would be good with this. I just listed the one in the
picture at the time it was taken.

Well if you like that one then here is a cocktail sauce you might like also.

Bloody Mary Shrimp Cocktail Sauce
4 ripe tomatoes -- coarsely chopped
2 celery stalks -- coarsely chopped
1 medium onion -- coarsely chopped
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons grated fresh or prepared horseradish
1 lemon -- juiced
2 teaspoons hot sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 shot pepper vodka
1 teaspoon celery seed
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
a jalapeno or chipotle pepper mixed in is a nice addition for the heat
lovers..

Combine the tomatoes, celery, and onion in a blender and puree to break the
vegetables down. Add the remaining ingredients and puree until smooth. Chill
before serving with a raw bar.

You don't get it. It has nothing to do with the number of shrimp. It
has everything to do with the size of the shrimp in each breaded
shrimp (i.e., the amount of shrimp compared to the amount of breading
and the size of the shrimp compared to the size of the breading).
Another way of putting it: Suppose you ordered a hot dog in a bun - a
hot dog bun of usual size- and when you got it you found that the hot
dog inside the bun was only about as large as you little finger. Get
the picture? Or do you need a 100 page dissertation. The product was
no good. Anyone with a minimum of intelligence would return the
product and get a refund.

You don't get it... when you buy "Jumbo Breaded Shrimp" you are buying
shrimp with jumbo breading. If you want breaded jumbo shrimp then buy
"Breaded Jumbo Shrimp", You did not get ripped off, you got exactly
what you paid for. If you feel ripped off that's entirely your own
fault... because you can't read... advertising agents pander to
functionally illiterate dumb douchebags like you.

And you know all this about me how, you are clairvoyant?

But everyone here knows you have a pinhead IQ... a brine shrimp has a
higher IQ than you... only a dumb douchebag buys frozen breaded shrimp
and expects gourmet.

I know it because I can read, Shelly, and you have made yourself an open
(albeit dumb) book.

"Everyone here", Shelly? You can hardly speak for yourself and you are
also too dumb to realize that I'm not the OP.

"you have just proven" and "ignoramus" would be proper. You should
learn English before you call others "dumb" and follow that up with
gibberish, Shelly.

The company that produced this product is, in my opinion, a ripper-
offer. Period.

The only reason to bread any food is as a way to sell stale bread
(that otherwise would go in the compost heap) and to make it appear
larger... KFC got rich selling small chickens with enough breading to
make them appear like you're getting a bargain when in fact it's all
an illusion... when you buy KFC you are mostly getting a bucketful of
greasy crumbs and a bucket. Breaded shimp is an illusion... and that
you are a fool is a fact... next time you buy KFC save that bucket,
put it over your head so no one can see your imbecile headed point.

Well now we know that these breaded shrimp are terrible! And,
according to you, American consumers are "functionally illiterate dumb
douchebags". One does not fail to notice here a remarkable distain
for the consumer and absolutely no invective against the
manufacturer. Do you work for the company?

No, but he IS a jumbo breaded shrimp...tiny shrimp and brain with lots of
surrounding breading. This explains a lot.

You are probably fairly young and have no idea what quality used to
mean. Apparently you know quite a lot about KFC so I presume you are
a customer with, as you put it, an upper anatomical feature which has
an "imbecile headed point" into which you stuff the chicken. Do you
prefer the crispy?

You must be fairly new here, Alex. Sheldon is not at all fairly young, and
is very much the fool himself, proven time and time again by his comments,
misquotes, and outright lying, not to mention his vehement and vile
personal attacks on many in the group. You would be best to killfile him
early on and forget about him. A continuing exchange with him only
encourages further unacceptable behavior.

LOL.. I think YOU don't get "it" or "anything" else. You bought
garbage and expected it to taste good. Taking it back is like
returning a McDonalds meal because it didn't taste like a real
home-cooked burger. You got what you bought and paid for.

Did the word "jumbo" confuse you? Or didn't you understand the box
was 9 oz.? Do you think a company is going to sell a box of 4-5
breaded shrimp to meet your definition of jumbo and be 9 oz?

Comparing even the worst hotdog joint to the frozen crap you bought is
insane. Hopefully you've learned your lesson and won't buy them
again. But I have a suspicion you live on frozen fish sticks and
frozen pizza.

I'll need the 100 pages please. Start typing now. I'm leaving
tomorrow for about 5 days and I'll look forward to reading it when I
return.

>The product was no good.


99% of the junk in the freezer case is no good. But most people who
buy it realize that, and buy it because they can't cook for
themselves, or use it as emergency food. I'll even have a frozen
pizza once in awhile. But I don't return it because it doesn't taste
like what I can make for myself or what's available at a quality pizza
parlor.

I'll judge your intelligence after I read your 100 pages.

He'd try to return the penis shrinking underwear.

I can see him telling the associate:

"It looked so full on the package"
