Why do you have a plate of just shrimp?

[–] swearengen@sopuli.xyz 22 points 5 days ago (1 children)

All you need with shrimp is drawn butter and salt.

[–] Presently42@lemmy.ca 11 points 5 days ago

Why do I have to draw the butter? Is this a new spell? Does the media being used to do the drawing matter?

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 21 points 5 days ago

To torture the cat that never gets fed, of course.

Looks to be an empty sauce bowl next to it. Still, within easy hunting grounds!

Wouldn't be that color if it was raw.

[–] mkhopper@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago

No, but that's still a bit too shiny and white for my tastes.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I get the feeling I might be frying my shrimp too long

[–] Dremor@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

Looks more like steamed shrimps, or boiled ones.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago (3 children)

Now why would you do such a thing??

[–] Dremor@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago

Because that's how a sizeable part of the world cook shrimps, why ?

[–] Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 3 points 5 days ago

Man, steamed shrimp dumplings taste fire, so I could see just steaming shrimp and throwing soy sauce or siracha on it or smth.

People seriously out here missing out on that fire ass maillard reaction!

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 3 points 4 days ago

There is a glass in the background that I'm hoping contains some kinda cocktail sauce.
