Ruth’s Mother’s Recipes: Shrimp in Beer
April 2009
Here’s one of my mother’s very favorite dishes. She was a person who prided herself on the ability to get dinner on the table in five minutes flat, so it’s easy to see why she was so fond of it:
- 1 lb shrimp in shell
- 2 bay leaves
- 6 allspice berries
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled
- salt and pepper
- 1 cup beer
-
Combine ingredients in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, two minutes.
-
Serve with melted butter.
