Why do you have a plate of just shrimp?

[–] swearengen@sopuli.xyz 22 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

All you need with shrimp is drawn butter and salt.

[–] Presently42@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 weeks 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 2 weeks 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!

Yaaa is weird

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

And why is it raw??

[–] Dremor@lemmy.world 29 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Wouldn't be that color if it was raw.

[–] mkhopper@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

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

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

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

[–] Dremor@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Looks more like steamed shrimps, or boiled ones.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Now why would you do such a thing??

[–] Dremor@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago

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

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 3 points 2 weeks ago

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

[–] Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 weeks ago

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

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 3 points 2 weeks ago

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

[–] Nima@leminal.space 56 points 2 weeks ago
