    This dipping sauce is fabulous and versatile...not just for shrimp. Easy to make and delicious. I made it exactly as the recipe the first time and didn't need to improve on a thing.

    My friends liked this so much they embarrassed me with how much they praised my cooking. All I did was read the recipe! Can't wait to make it again.

    This is a terrific recipe that everyone loves! The dipping sauce has great flavor and I recommend making it a day ahead! I peel the cooked shrimp and refrigerate until serving. Great alternative to shrimp cocktail!
