Seafood Cocktail Sauce
When I was back in Toronto running my event planning company along with my part-time bartending job, it wasn’t hard to know a lot of people. Everywhere I went in the GTA, I was assured to see someone I knew or who knew me.
When I was putting a dinner party together at my place, I ended up with a large group many times. Having a few friends over is one thing but when there’s a group of 15-20+, the menu has to be more “convenient” if I may say so. Not that I didn’t serve great food but I definitely have to think about the logistics of making it. Preparing a quick & easy, delicious and not too complicated meal was the way to go.
One time I was entertaining a large group of people and for an appetizer, I decided to serve shrimp cocktail; easy, uncomplicated, fast and a favorite with my guests. It was a perfect choice until I ran out of that lovely sauce that is served with it. Acting quickly, I had to make one from scratch and that is when I started making my own Seafood Cocktail Sauce!
Like most homemade recipes, this sauce is far better than the ones from the store. It’s tastier, fresher and you can make this Seafood Cocktail sauce as hot or mild as you want. It’s super-fast to make and much more economical. This homemade version is a fraction of the cost of what you would pay at the store so why not make it from scratch.
Like I often say – “Homemade is far better!” and this recipe is no exception. After quickly mixing a few ingredients together… tada… you have an incredible Seafood Cocktail Sauce to serve your guests.
Bon Appétit!
