Huge bag of whole shrimp on sale at Costco, so I had to make some shrimp and grits! Whipped up a stock from the shells/heads for the grits, finished with a thin gravy made from bacon fat, white wine, and some more shrimp stock. Burnt the crap out of the toast but we didn’t really need it anyways.
J-j-j-jumbo! :D
Side note: dammit, I’m such a coward.
Story-time: my brother is allergic to shrimp, and almost died by shrimp buffet one time, or whatever the fuck that was (sorry, temporary Jim Jefferies mode, sorry), but every since then, the whole fambily’s been kinda freaked out by crustaceans in terms of edibles.
Which weirdly makes me happy going back to my aquarium days, watching the little shrimp do their fascinating things. Bonus pts: guess which uncle likes to surprise his nephews & nieces here and there with Sea-Monkey starter sets? XD
