Thinking about making shrimp tonight and saucin’ it up. Wondering if anyone has a favorite or any recommendations? I have a little bit of garlic chili sauce from the time I made tofu, but I’m looking into other options. What are some easy, tasty sauces that pair well with shrimp? ---

I like this, you can adapt it if doing sous vide. I give the sauce a quick cook on the stove and pour over the shrimp in the bag.

I like ketchup and fresh horseradish proportions to taste. ---

Thank you! I definitely have those two things on hand. Will experiment tomorrow. Equal proportions for both? @john.jcb ---

No start out with quite a bit more ketchup. Fresh horseradish is quite strong and takes a little getting use to like wasabi. ---

Sorry, almost forgot about this one. This is a Thai Sweet Chili Sauce or Nam Chim Kia. If you can’t find red jalapeno or red Fresno chili’s or don’t want to make the sauce yourself, you can go to your supermarket and usually find Mae Ploy Sweet Chili Sauce in the Oriental section. You can use this as a bbq sauce for chicken and seafood. And as a dipping sauce for chicken tenders, fish sticks and shrimp cocktails. Carla Cardello ([www.chocolatemoosey.com](http://www.chocolatemoosey.com)) YIELDS 1 Sweet Chili Sauce Adjust the heat with the amount of jalapeno seeds you add. Ingredients 2 large red jalapeno peppers, chopped 3 cloves garlic, peeled 1/4 cup vinegar 1/2 cup sugar 3/4 cup water 2 tsp salt 1 Tbsp cornstarch 2 Tbsp water Instructions Puree together the jalapenos, garlic, vinegar, sugar, 3/4 cup water, and salt in a blender until smooth as possible. Transfer to a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for about 3 minutes or until the mixture slightly thickens. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch and 2 Tbsp water until smooth. Add to the pepper mixture and simmer for another few minutes or until the mixture is thickened slightly. It’s still going to be a little bit runny. The cornstarch is added to help suspend the pepper and garlic bits rather than have them sink to the bottom. Let cool completely then store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month. > **[Sweet Chili Sauce - Homemade In The Kitchen](https://www.chocolatemoosey.com/sweet-chili-sauce/)** > > Homemade Sweet Chili Sauce is a sweet and spicy sauce made from red chilis and garlic.

In a medium pan, fry garlic, lots, for 30 seconds. Add lots of parsley and some butter. Pour over cooked prawns.
