Why do you have a plate of just shrimp?

[–] swearengen@sopuli.xyz 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

All you need with shrimp is drawn butter and salt.

[–] Presently42@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 month 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 20 points 1 month 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 8 points 1 month ago

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

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

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

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

Looks more like steamed shrimps, or boiled ones.

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

Now why would you do such a thing??

[–] Dremor@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

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

[–] Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month 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 1 month ago

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