Notes
- Serving Tip: Before serving drain off some of the liquid and add fresh herbs like fresh dill or parsley or serve on a bed of greens to brighten it up.
- Use Fresh Shrimp. Discard any shrimp if you notice an odd smell, different texture or color.
- Use Peeled and Deveined Shrimp. Make sure to peel and devein your shrimp or buy them already prepped before pickling for best results.
- Keep Covered. Make sure your shrimp are totally covered in brine before refrigerating. If doubling the recipe you may need to use a larger container or multiple jars.
- Minimum Marinating Time. Allow shrimp marinate in the fridge for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
