Make Super Shrimp Cocktail Sauce

Use a medium size mixing bowl


Shrimp, hot or cold will need a zip to bring out the full flavor of that seafood. You might even find other uses for this super shrimp cocktail sauce since it is so easy and inexpensive to make.


Instructions








1. This recipe has been in my family for 50 years. My parents used it on half shell clams, raw oysters on the half shell and for shrimp cocktails. You can increase the ingredients to allow more sauce for many more people; just double or triple the recipe.








2. Thoroughly wash your hands before preparing anything in the kitchen. In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine horse radish, Heinz ketchup and fresh, natural, Sunkist lemon juice.


3. Stir ingredients well with a spoon or spatula or whisk. Serve with a sprig of fresh parsley if desired or decorate with a thinly sliced lemon with the peel intact. Immediately use or store in tightly closed lid container for use later.


4. This cocktail sauce recipe makes enough for 2 very large shrimp cocktails. The recipe can be doubled or tripled by altering the ingredients described.
